LOCAL HONEY LEAGUE · SEASON ZERO

Keep score for the helpful stuff.

A soft local league for reciprocal acts: play, lend, host, bring, publish. It can sit beside pickleball without becoming only a sports ladder, and it can carry local honey without becoming a vendor table.

12 Main Street Table
9 Court Craft Crew
7 First Tide Hosts
5 Sea Glass Shelf

LOCAL CLAIM

Log one Season Zero act.

Browser-local for the prototype. The important rule is evidence: name the act, the place, and the receipt it could become.

CLOSEOUT

Prizes should stay small and useful.

  • First pick from the paddle library shelf for one week.
  • A named Honey Saturday table slot.
  • A small PointCast postcard or Nounish receipt when the season closes.
