Moments from the neighborhood

Every project begins with people living within walking distance. These photographs capture the physical labor, shared meals, and quiet maintenance that sustain our block-level mutual aid initiatives all season long.

From the floor

Nobody asks for paperwork before handing you a cup of tea or a shovel. We simply show up on Saturday morning, do the physical work together, and sit down to eat.
