press release: Best. Friday. Ever.: Storytelling Through Soil
June 22, 2018 5-8pm, Allen Centennial Garden, 620 Babcock Drive
The soil beneath our feet is teaming with life and brimming with stories to tell: stories of our past, our present, and predictions for the future. Soil is a conduit of energy between all living things. It's time to dig in and listen to what it has to tell us. The Garden will feature hands on activities, food carts and live music, all with a horticultural spin. Welcome Community GroundWorks! Community Groundworks is a nonprofit organization that connects people to nature and local food. Through hands-on education, children and adults learn gardening, urban farming, healthful eating and to care for natural areas.
Music: Quinn Mongeon is the lead singer of the Madison indie rock band Penny Seller. Penny Seller released their first EP 'Pint Sized' earlier this year (https://pennyseller.bandcamp.
