Food is fuel. Knowledge is power. Join Backyard on the last Sunday of the month for BACKCHAT our potluck + lecture series 🙂‍↕️✨ “Backchat is a monthly teach-in and potluck rooted in shared knowledge, food, and care. Backchat is a space for informal conversations with real substance. Topics range from sports nutrition and mental health to coding and personal finance — areas that are often gatekept or hard to access. Each Backchat invites someone with lived or professional expertise to share practical, generous insights. no podiums, no hierarchy — just people learning from one another and breaking bread together. This is education as mutual aid: community, camaraderie, and knowledge circulated freely. If you’d like to pitch a chat, or know someone who could start a good conversation, we’d love to hear from you.”

This Friday will be the first Backyard run! This is a pilot. We’ll be learning cadence, pacing, and logistics as we go, and refining things week by week. Feedback is welcome and encouraged. Backyard is meant to grow slowly — with care, and with the people who show up. Fridays. Brooklyn. All are welcome in our backyard. Route details, a spotlight on the coffee shop we’re visiting, and an RSVP link coming in the next couple of days 🫶

Happy holidays 🤍 If you’re thinking about a New Year’s resolution you might actually want to keep, your cool older sisters started a run club. Friday, January 2 will be the inaugural run of Backyard Run Club. Backyard is a Friday morning, party-pace run rooted in community care and recovery. We run to support local restaurants. We see food as fuel — and as a reason to gather. We stay together. We keep it easy. Backyard exists outside competition, grind culture, and performance. It’s for people who want movement without pressure, connection without hierarchy, and a city that feels a little more human. If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. Fridays. Brooklyn. All are welcome in our backyard.

We’ve entered ~spring~ ☀️🌷🙂‍↕️ I missed about half of April’s runs while traveling —
but y’all kept showing up. And that’s the whole thing. Backyard exists because you keep coming back.
Because you choose to be here 💛 Thank you for keeping it going. Where we ran in April: @gather_les @bklynblend@principlesbk@blackstarvinylbk 
 If you’re tagged, share this — it’s how we grow 🌱
