Oh hi down there from that sunflower towering over your head -- Well folks, the time has come! The past few months have felt a lot like doubling the size of our airplane while flying it, so next week we're going to land this baby for just a minute. We'll be closed for renovations from Labor Day to Friday, aspiring to open again by Saturday, September 12th. Wish us fair winds -- and please forgive us if we're delayed! As y'all know we're a tiny team over here, though we're very grateful to the kind souls who have reached out to volunteer...

Screaming salutations from that one cicada outside your window- As most of you have heard by now, we here at Chicory are currently gathering our energy up to myceliate into the other side of 25 Broadway! Y'all's response to our forthcoming events space has been incredibly heartening -- good fuel for the work ahead. While this move represents a major expansion of our capacities along with our overhead, our hope is that for you, beloved community, it will feel like a very ~organic~ outgrowth of the work we've been doing for years now. If you'd like to lend your input on decisions...

BIG NEWS!

BIG NEWS!

Christine Baker

Dear friends, neighbors, nature nerds, I have news to share. For locals on the 'gram, you may have already seen that our longtime neighbors here at 25 Broadway, Autumn Elise Vintage, are closing up this location to care for family in a time of need. July 31st will be their last day in this location, so if you've had your eye on something there you can lighten their move into Autumn's private studio anytime over the next few weekends. Our news...is that we are expanding Chicory Naturalist into both sides of 25 Broadway! Before any reality checks or requests to fill...

A bevy of butts blinking hello in the twilight- This is going to be one of a few emails you get from us this month, as we are nearrrrrly ready to share some Very Big News in addition to our regularly scheduled summer jams here at Chicory. I know "news" on its own doesn't have the greatest connotation at this point, but without tipping my hand I can assure that this isn't the kind of breaking news that will make you want to jump in a lake! (Unless it's to cool down, that is...) I'll also be adding a couple book promotion events as...

A chorus of twittering, buzzing, humming hellos- June is upon us. Somehow we've made it halfway though this impossible year, and the soft green world is here to hold us (and help us hold it) for a spell. We have so many opportunities to be in community this month -- books and poetry and nature walks abound! -- that this email is already quite long without a preamble. But more as invocation than preface, I just want to wish each and every one of you one sweet, sun-dappled hour off your phone. Whether its a lunch hour in a parklet...
