Learn How to Cast thy Seed for Free This Sunday in Noe Valley

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

Your horn runneth over.

Aside from foraging and hunting, you can’t get more back to basics than growing your own food.  Unfortunately, for some, the task of keeping a houseplant alive is one that often ends in sadness

It really isn’t entirely without reason-With few exceptions, you really can’t stick a twig in the ground or a ceramic pot and expect a victory garden to spring forth.

It often begins with a seedling, and there is a process in getting that to happen.  If you grew up in one those houses that had silk flowers decorating the front yard, chances are you may need some help if you ever wanted to green that thumb.

In an effort to provide the city’s neighbourhood and school gardens with the starters they need for a bumper crop, Seeds on Streets is teaching the art of seeding for anyone who wants to learn how to nurture a flower bed and simultaneously help keep this urban jungle less concrete.

Stephen Torres - Threadbare-Fact Finder (Editor, San Francisco)

Stephen's early years were spent in a boxcar overlooking downtown Los Angeles. From there he moved around the state with his family before settling under the warm blanket of smog that covers suburban Southern California. Moving around led to his inability to stay in one place for very long, but San Francisco has been reeling him back in with its siren song since 1999.
By trade he pours booze, but likes to think he can write and does so occasionally for the SF Bay Guardian, Bold Italic and 7x7. He also likes to enjoy time spent in old eateries, bars and businesses that, by most standards, would have been condemned a long time ago.
