If there is one thing yours truly does not possess, it is a green thumb. For this reason I leave all things green to the experts. In this case “Typing Wermz” who, despite being bereft of a thumb— be it green or otherwise (or fingers for that matter)— were kind enough to bring this event to my attention. He/she/they (?) write:

Hello composters!

We are coming out of the woodwork for a fun educational event this weekend. In partnership with GrowNYC and the Newtown Creek Alliance Compost Workgroup, we will be diverting part of the Saturday haul from the Greenmarket compost collection in McCarren and mixing up a special batch of compost at our site.

Come learn about existing citywide compost initiatives!
Come learn about compost cooking!
Come get some hands-on experience at North Brooklyn Compost Project!

No, not those tits (as seen at left). This event will be showcasing the more comely (and hopefully less aromatic) variety to raise funds for the North Brooklyn composting project. My tipster Angela Barrow (of Cheek-ie Designs) writes:

greetings miss H!

I am an avid reader of your blog. I love it! and a fellow greenpointer, i have a great event this friday. It’s free! There are calendars for sale and a portion of the proceeds go to benefit the north brooklyn compost project! which is totally rad. Â Hope you guys and gals can post this event and attend.

Here’s the deal:

On Friday, December 18, 2009 starting at 7:00 p.m. Williamsburg’s very own Fluke will be inaugurating the 2009 edition of the Tits 4 Totes Calendar. This 11″x17″ “black and white beauty” will feature (and I quote) “26 of Brooklyn’s loveliest tits as well as unique recycling tips”. This can be yours for a mere $20.00. How can you top that? Methinks I know what Santa will be putting in the Mister’s stocking this year…

Tits For Totes
December 18, 2009 7:00 – 10:00 p.m.
Fluke
169 Wythe Avenue
Brooklyn, New York 11211

I have also been advised that refreshments will be served!
