KFNA Board seeking three neighbors to fill open seats

By

At the April KFNA Annual Meeting and Election, five community members were seated on the board. Three additional seats remain open, however. KFNA is committed to being an equitable and inclusive organization that reflects the diversity and many identities in our neighborhood. KFNA is specifically encouraging those who have been historically underrepresented in neighborhood organizations to apply. This includes Renters, POCI,  LGBTQ+, Youth, or Seniors.

If you have any questions or are potentially interested in serving please contact KFNA Executive Director Sarah Linnes-Robinson at . Or complete and return a brief Interest Form (found below) to ; KFNA is then inviting all interested individuals to the June KFNA meeting on 6/12/19 at 7 PM, MLK Park to introduce themselves to the board.

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!

For anyone new to the neighborhood or has been asleep the past few years and is wondering, “What the heck is PorchFest?” PorchFest is an evening of community all wrapped up in the sounds of summer. On this single summer evening, Kingfield musicians will perform acoustic music outdoors at their respective homes, or at neighbor’s porch or yard, while others stroll through the neighborhood, enjoying the sounds. This event regularly features over 50 musical performances on about 3 dozen Kingfield stages.
