Come build community through food! This new program will offer neighbors a chance to get together and prepare healthy, home cooked meals to take home to their freezer. Learn new cooking skills (canning, baking, etc.), discover healthy recipes and make new friends! Community Kitchens improve the health and social well-being of the community. Dates and times still to be determined. Want to get involved? Call Kate Farmer at (206) 461-4568 ext. 211 or email: “Katef (at) nhwa (dot) org” for more information.
The City has Neighborhood plans for some 38 neighborhoods, city-wide. Those plans are approaching the decade point and with the changes in Seattle in the last 10 year, the arrival of Link in our part of town, and the forecast changes coming, it’s time to reevaluate and possibly update those plans.
Residents are invited to partner with the City and continue to develop communities for people of all incomes, ages, interests and lifestyles. Since change is already in progress in our neighborhood, we’re one of the first to be reevaluated.
Find out more and be heard at the NORTH RAINIER VALLEY COMMUNITY WORKSHOP.
Saturday, March 21st – 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Franklin High School
