Boomerang Bags, boldly working to stop plastic bag use, one shopper at a time!

RSVP here for this FREE sewing bee!

(Note: October and November dates also on the 3rd Tuesday!)

This fall a Kingfield chapter of Boomerang Bags is taking root, to be nurtured along by the Linden Hills group, and hosted by Butter Bakery Café. You are welcome to attend any or all of three fall sessions, which will meet on the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 6 to 9 PM at Butter Bakery Café, 3700 Nicollet: September 17th, October 15th, and November 19th.

The format will be causal, so drop in for as much time as you have free. Bring your own machine if you are a sewer, or just show up and help iron, cut, and pin. There will be host each month to help you start the bag-making process and get oriented to a task. All levels of participation are welcomed, and we look forward to connecting with each other and sharing conversations about how we can all leave a lighter footprint on this beautiful earth!

KFNA Board Meeting; including Grand Avenue Repaving Presentation

The regular meeting of the KFNA Board will begin at 7 PM. A special presentation about the repaving of Grand Avenue will begin at 8 PM.

In 2021, the Minneapolis Public Works Department plans to reconstruct 2.24 miles of Grand Avenue South between Lake Street and 48th Street West. The project will include complete replacement of the street infrastructure including pavement, curb, and gutter. The condition of the sidewalk and boulevard will be evaluated and may be included in the street reconstruction as well.

Street reconstruction often provides an opportunity for safety enhancements, greening, and other amenities. Public works will hold meetings regarding the preliminary design in late summer and fall 2019. Please visit the project website for more information, including upcoming meeting dates. To sign up for project email updates, see the “Grand Ave S Reconstruction” page at

Fall Frosts; A Hands-on Gardening Workshop

With August ending, Fall approaches and with it cooler temperatures. Join us at the Donation Garden to learn how to prepare your garden for the first frost. We’ll also discuss late season planting, put in some Egyptian onions, and check on our tomatoes and ailing basil.
Everyone is welcome. Feel free to drop in and bring your questions, tend the soil, and meet neighbors, whether weekly or whenever you can!

The mission of the MLK Donation Garden, located on the northern side of the King Park Building at 4055 Nicollet, is to connect neighbors and grow food for our community. Neighbors gather every Tuesday from 5:30-6:30 PM to tend the vegetables in the boxes at the northern side of the MLK Recreation Center and discuss a weekly topic. The food we grow in 2019 will be donated to The Aliveness Project (located at 3808 Nicollet), but the knowledge you go home with is yours to keep!
