Hey there everyone! Happy Thursday. 

Before we get to the Weekend Buzz, I wanted to share that Local Roots, the Chinese farm-to-table cafe and CSA in Carroll Gardens is offering free produce for writers and actors on strike, to help support those whose livelihoods have been affected for trying to make a positive change in their industry. Local Roots is giving local and organic produce away to those standing strong in the WGA and SAG AFTRA strikes. Just fill out this short form before Monday August 14 at 12pm if you are a writer or actor who has been actively striking. You'll be able to pick up a Local Roots bag of fresh produce on August 18 at the Local Roots Market+Cafe. Local Roots is a small business so there are limited bags available. Please help spread the word to share the love!
