Grains for Grounds Fest: The ATX Climate Week Wrap Party 🍻🌱

​Grains for Grounds Fest: The ATX Climate Week Wrap Party 🍻🌱

​After a massive week of action, it’s time to celebrate the hands that did the work!

​Join us at Fast Friends Beer Company—our veteran-owned community partner—for a day of volunteer appreciation, living soil, and big climate energy.

​The Local Loop in Motion: We’re pulling back the curtain on the "Grains for Grounds" cycle. We are proud to highlight that 100% of the soil amendments for our Collective Compost are sourced from women contributors. You’ll get to meet the partners who fuel our living soil, including:

• ​Spent Brewery Grains: Donated by the female brewer at Fast Friends.

• ​Spent Mycelium Blocks: Provided by Cap City Shrooms.

• ​Equine Manure Amendments: Sourced from Heart Stone Ranch, a local female-owned equine therapy ranch.

• ​Coffee Grounds: Collected from our Grains for Grounds program, fueled by local female-owned coffee shops.

• ​Carbon-Sequestering Mulch: Sustainably sourced wood chips and mulch from Good Morning Tree Service.

​What’s Happening:

• ​The Main Event:

  • ​Watch the BE Wild Women in action as they lead a live Mini Meadow Installation Celebration right on-site. This is how we plant for the future—together!

• ​Eco-Partner Row:

  • ​Tabling and demonstrations by our other local Eco Partners.

• ​Hands-on STEM:

  • ​We’ve got soil-based STEM activities for the kids and native plant info + living soil kits for all ages.

• ​Cards for Community:

  • ​Stop by our greeting card station to help create Community Connection. Send a nature-themed note to a loved one, or write a personalized message for us to deliver to our local nursing homes and elders.

​Drink Green, Eat Well:

​Fast Friends is a champion of sustainable waste practices and a vital part of our compost collective. Every pint you enjoy supports a business that chooses green waste methods and hospitable, community-first decisions.

​Whether you volunteered with us this week or just want to see what the Mini Meadow Movement is all about, come grab a beer, get your hands in some dirt, and help us close out Climate Week the right way.

​Let's grow the future. We'll see you there.
