October 24: Toni Bee Presents Poets in the Garden


On October 24, Stone Soup Poetry and Toni Bee will be hosting an open mic with special guests from 1-3 PM both on line at at her favorite Cambridge community garden. 

Join Toni Bee & her poet friends in the garden as they read poems during harvest time. 

Toni Bee is a Cambridge Poet Populist emeritus and the 2016 Inaugural Poetry Ambassador of Cambridge

THE GOAL of the reading is: To make people aware of the 14 gardens in Cambridge / URGE that ALL FOLKS should feel welcomed in community gardens

The event is presented on Zoom via Facebook live. To join in on Zoom, click the link here.

The meeting ID is 815-7668-5768

Password: garden

The physical address is 260 Broadway Street in Cambridge. Physical attendees are asked to wear a mask and practice social distancing.

In this season of racial & health pandemics Bee along with Latino & Pakistani neighbors discovered gardening as therapeutic, as community building

BUT they were not welcomed with open communication & somebody filed a police report...MY WORD!

- LET our creative words & music fly across Cambridge & other cities - MAY we make Black & Brown/ People of Color & ALL folks aware that there are community gardens in 'hoods - where you can grow fresh Veggies & engage with others

This Poetry reading encourages food justice/ fairness to all people/ less punitive action and more open communication.
