5. Hang out at the Summit Street Garden, buy some flower bulbs and eat some food. But don’t try eat the flower bulbs and buy some food (Saturday)

13. Another Williamsburg bar, LP ‘n Harmony is having a birthday celebration as well, with free food! September birthdays man, they’re everywhere (Sunday)

14. It’s time to say goodbye forever to Walter White. Here’s where you can catch Breaking Bad. Is it actually goodbye forever? We got a press screener but we won’t spoil the ending, in which the neo-Nazis win (Sunday)
