MoS’s 2000 Mud Balls to cleaning a NYC waterway!
The MoS Collective has the goal to stockpile 2000 mud balls for a Summer Mud Fling. The microbes eat waste and pollution. So come to Jimmy’s for a fun and interesting Saturday. We need your help! In other countries they make a million and call it “A Million Apologies to Mother Earth”. NYC a million is a better number but for us we’re kicking it off with 2000.   Where are we going to keep a million mub balls? If you have a source for milk crates to stack them in.. and storage locations for the stockpile please notify us.

MUD BALL Mondays or Tuesday Happy Hours:
We will be planning NEW evenings where we just make activated and make mud balls for events.
