  Red Beans and Ricely Yours, Austin

  This community initiative, headed by Chris Cubas and Maris Clegg, is dedicated to providing free meals (of red beans and rice, andouille sausage, cornbread, fruit, dessert, and a drink) to Austinites in need. "On Tuesdays, we will provide a link to sign up for a free home-made meal delivered to you with safety in mind," goes their announcement on Facebook. "There is no judgment and the form is anonymous. If you have been affected by the impact of Covid-19 or are having a hard time, we would like to make a small portion of your day a little bit better." Or, if you'd like to donate your time in driving, baking treats, or providing cases of nonalcoholic beverages, please reach out to [email protected].

  Tree Regulations and the HOME Initiative

  Trees are the coolest, right? These things grow out of the ground and boom, you’ve got shelter, you’ve got oxygen, you’ve got food – trees are basically a one-stop shop for all of life’s needs. There’s even a Tree of the Year Awards, which by the way is accepting nominations until July 15. Keeping trees in mind is an important part of housing development, so the city’s Development Services Department invites commentary from the public as new land use regulations are put in place. Join the webinar to learn more and throw in your two cents about trees. – Kat McNevins
