Meetup at the Bakery. July 12, 2010
Monday, JULY 12 is our next Meetup!
We had so much fun last month, we’re doing it again: what’s better than a summer night in our Barrio Logan grocery-cart farm experiment?
The Bakery is a design collective in Barrio Logan interested in art, culture, and global responsibility on a local scale. Bring drinks, hang out in our urban farm, and meet the neighbors. We’ll provide some sort of snack, even if it’s freshly harvested quinoa.
