This weekend the renowned 〰️ Dr. Rivers Stevens 〰️ will be on hand in his 𝐏𝐡𝐲𝐭𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐲 𝐃𝐨𝐦𝐞 to prescribe hearty, local, seasonal adaptogens to cure modern societal ailments. Dr. Stevens has balanced the energies of some of history’s more notorious anxiety-stricken patients, including the handsome and talented Justin Theroux. 🥰⁣

Alongside medicinal treatments, he’ll be selling adaptogenic pasta sauces including Spicy Basil and Tangy Ginseng under his 𝘊𝘩𝘦𝘧 𝘙𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘚𝘵𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘴 label. 😋

Rami Malek @ramimalek will be at the SLGF this weekend. Please do not approach him or he may never come back. Don’t blow this for us!

🚨 CRISIS 🚨 There is a dangerous fissure within the SLGF community over which is better to practice: #Humility 😌 or #Gratitude 🤲? Please comment and let us know. We need to begin the #healing, but we don’t know how!!! 😖

🔺Several of you have asked in the comments, so we will address directly: YES we will have a valet stand, both for cars and strollers. (And Ashton K. Distilleries will be offering free valet to anyone who purchases any of their $19 botanical inspired craft cocktails). Free parking is available at the lot six blocks away that the neighborhood is divided over turning into a food hall with no less than 3 hot chicken stalls or homeless assisted living with onsite medical services. 🔺

Share your SLGF haul! What did you get this weekend that is a physical manifestation of your attempt to fill the empty voids in your soul?

〰️〰️NEW ARTIST ALERT 〰️〰️ Sleep Mechanics Instructor Hashan Al’D’Naish Epstein hand sews 100% hemp sleepcaps based on an 1820s design.🏺

Epstein says the sleepcaps induce sleepiness, regulate body temperature, and protect from violent uncharged molecules that bombard us while we sleep. Oh no! 😨⁣🦠

Make sure to pick up one for yourself, your partner, and your third to ensure a safe and pleasant slumber. 😌

🔹We are trying to move away from words like “customer” or “discounts,” and towards ideas like “community” and “full price.” Please keep this in mind when you visit this weekend. 🔹 One does not “buy” a $1300 thin gold bracelet, one “receives”. One does not “purchase” a $12 matcha latte, one “experiences”. One does not “pay for admission” to the fair, one “does their part to support a community of makers, influencers, and curators.” 🔹 See you this weekend. 😌

〰️〰️〰️Clothier Kylie Chandelier Junque of the new brand SeeBeeDee — “A lot of people make clothing from hemp, but I think we can say we are the only clothiers only using CBD. We hope those ailing physically, mentally, and spiritually will don our apparel and find themselves relaxed, nurtured, and unburdened. We weren’t able to get pockets into our first run, but we have found that works better— there’s nowhere to hide or carry your phone, wallet, or key: items associated with MCA (Modern Crippling Anxiety) that CBD is perfect at absorbing and diffusing.” 〰️〰️〰️〰️SeeBeeDee’s branding is boxy, oversized, and heavy clothing that’s just perfect for comfort, starting at $70 for a beanie. 〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️Find SeeBeeDee this weekend in the SLGF’s Fashion Square. 🔸

In light of recent measles outbreaks, we at the SLGF have to accept the science. We know this is not in line with everyone’s personal beliefs, and we refuse to be anything if not inclusive. Therefore, we are encouraging everyone to “vaccinate.” Whatever that means to you.⁣ 🤲

Maybe it means a shot from a real doctor. Or a dusting of burning sage every morning. Or wearing a necklace of chunky amber crystals from Joshua Tree. ⁣🤲

(Whatever it is, SLGF absolves itself of all legal liabilities. Read the terms & conditions of your ticket.) 📋

The rumors are 𝐍𝐎𝐓 true: Infamous food truck Da Mayhem Boys will 𝐍𝐎𝐓 be at the SLGF this weekend, and every guest will 𝐍𝐎𝐓 be receiving a free “Fault Line Burger with mac & cheese, crispy thick cut bacon, and sriracha ranch sauce on a pretzel bun with a side of signature tater tot nachos.” 🚫🍔🔥🎸⁣

We can’t believe we even have to address this as Da Mayhem Boys are completely antithetical to the SLGF ethos. They are rambunctious, ironic, and highly gendered. 😤
