It's the perfect time to make seed bombs that you can plant in your garden (or in a pot) after the last frost for a beautiful patch of flowers that are known to attract our best friend, the bee! Come get your hands dirty for a good cause and we'll provide all of the materials and some snacks. We look forward to seeing you there!

Zines (pronounced zeens) are small, handmade, counter-culture folded booklets that offer the perfect space to share your message and express your thoughts. Born out of DIY and punk subcultures, zines exist outside of mainstream publishers and cover virtually any topic from art and personal diaries to politics and niche fandoms.
