I heard from Kate Blumm from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and she reminded me to shout out about this. So here it is. I'M SHOUTING: 

Making
Brooklyn Bloom tomorrow at BBG from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It’s presented
by GreenBridge, the same folks who run the Greenest Block in Brooklyn contest.

It's a free all-day event featuring plenty of
workshops, exhibitors, short films and more. This year’s theme is
“Growing Up Green: Guiding Youth From Gardening to Green-Collar
Jobs,” and it’s dedicated to informing Brooklynites about ways to
green their neighborhoods by mobilizing youth towards gardening and
growing fresh food. Highlights include:
 

·        
16 workshops, including Kitchen Botany
and Rain Gardens for Beginners

·        
interactive exhibits including miniature solar
cars, granola-making, and worm composting

·        
an Emerging Green-Collar Jobs Panel
(featuring folks from Sustainable South Bronx, MillionTrees NYC, Added Value
Community Farm and more)

·        
a presentation called “A Brooklyn
Girl’s Food Voice: Three Generations of Growing Food” by Annie
Hauck-Lawson, author of Gastropolis: Food & New York City

 
More information (and a flyer guaranteeing free admission)
 is available here.
I’ve attached a media advisory too; hope you find it post-worthy (even at
this late hour). Thank you!
