Have you been to the new HoneyBee Sage Wellness in Bronzeville?! You gotta try their “New Fashioned” N/A cocktails and herbal teas. We had a blast chatting and filming with Angela about her awesome apothecary as a part of our neighborhood entrepreneur collaboration with the incredible Brew City Match and Mke-Lax. If you are an aspiring business-owner looking to set up a brick and mortar you’ll definitely want to check out their entrepreneurial programs dedicated specifically to providing small businesses with the resources they need to build their dreams (link in comments).

Repost from

An exchange of tiny seeds and big ideas!
Back in spring 2021 Elena Terry of Wild Bearies invited Venice Williams of Alice’s Garden Urban Farm and Jay Salinas of Wormfarm Institute to come together and exchange seeds. That autumn, Elena and her daughter catered a meal for Rural Urban Flow participants sharing the delicious abundance of squash, watermelon, and two varieties of corn that they grew.
Check out the ATLAS article on the MdW site (link in bio) to see the first clip of the documentary and hear about the exchange of seeds, stories and culture happening right here in Sauk County in collaboration with our Milwaukee neighbors. bearies

Thanks to for having us and for trusting us with their incredible historical archive of socialism in Milwaukee from the last 110+ years. We appreciated being able to see our work with an audience and spark some discussion around how this history is relevant today. While this film was originally to play at the 2020 Democratic National Convention, we are grateful to have such a great hometown film festival to provide space for this work.

We are very excited to announce our latest project, a collaboration with is getting a special preview screening and guided discussion through ’s “Frank Talks” discussion series on Dec 8. RSVP link in bio.

For nearly half of the 20th Century, a socialist mayor sat in Milwaukee’s City Hall — Emil Seidl (1910-1912), Daniel Hoan (1916-1940) and Frank Zeidler (1948-1960). The Milwaukee Public Library has an extensive archive of socialism in Milwaukee, which became the laboratory for an experiment. Highlights were pulled from the collection and laid out in eras. Then, three invested Milwaukeeans with no formal ties to socialism spent an afternoon exploring the archival items. This short film, produced by TankThink and Adam Carr, presents what emerged from the group’s exploration — stories of a changing city, as well as persistent issues that carry on to the present day.
We will follow the film with lively dialogue on how our history dovetails with current themes.
