SUMMARY:Winter Sowing with Hudson County Native Plant Society
DESCRIPTION:Join a hands on workshop with the Hudson County Native Plant society to start your Winter sowing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nThis is a hands-on workshop about winter sowing – a low-cost\, easy way to start seedlings outdoors using recycled containers as mini-greenhouses. Winter sowing allows seeds to go through cold-stratification (necessary for germination)\, while giving the seeds some protection from animals and the elements. It’s a great way to get lots of seedlings for cheap\, and it’s a good method for starting native plants\, most of which need to go through cold-stratification to germinate. \nAttendees should bring empty\, clean milk jugs. Other similar\, large containers will do\, such as soda bottles. Containers need to have enough space for 3 inches of soil\, and a few inches above for the seedlings to grow. We will also bring some extra jugs and containers! \nWe will prep the containers at the event – cutting around and adding holes for drainage and ventilation\, and then fill with soil and a choice of seeds.\nWe’ll bring a variety of native seeds\, including several milkweed varieties\, and attendees are also welcome to bring their own.

SUMMARY:Global Music Series: Nomfusi (South Africa)
DESCRIPTION:The soul of Mama Afrika meets the fire of Motown and Soul… in a pint-sized packet of dynamite. After a mere six years in the industry\, and with over twenty international tours under her belt\, Nomfusi has become one of South Africa’s most sought-after performers worldwide. Indeed\, there is nothing small about the tiny songstress with the gigantic voice and tons of charm. With sheer will and determination\, she has risen from the squalor of South African squatter camps to some of the finest stages of the world. Likened by critics to a young Miriam Makeba with a twist of Tina Turner\, the multiple SAMA and Metro FM Award nominee embraces both her African heritage and the sounds of Soul and Motown she grew up with. Like a purifying wild fire that cuts through the bone\, her cathartic performances have been praised across the globe.

He can’t even remember his own name\, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. \nAll he knows is that he’s been asleep for a very\, very long time.

Hurtling through space on this tiny ship\, it’s up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery—and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species. \nAnd with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away\, he’s got to do it all alone. \nOr does he? \nAn irresistible interstellar adventure as only Andy Weir could deliver\, Project Hail Mary is a tale of discovery\, speculation\, and survival to rival The Martian—while taking us to places it never dreamed of going.
