This post was my first post on Nextdoor.com — a social media site like Facebook that’s organized by neighborhood. I believe Nextdoor.com is the best tool for local organizing that’s ever existed and I use it to make my neighborhood a better place. Here’s the first article I wrote about Nextdoor.com.

Traffic Calming on Hawthorne and Division — Still working on this 🙂 — but we got to 20mph on residential streets and 25 on some arterials!

Do you have fruit/nut trees that you’d like to share the bounty from? — 10.16.18 — Currently, the action in Portland, Oregon is on a Facebook group that is over 1,200 members strong and growing by the day. The Portland Fruit Tree Project is also having harvest parties this Fall. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1405238632898417/ https://portlandfruit.org/
