Got Restless Kids on Winter Break? Drop Them at Hayes Valley FarmHayes Valley Farm
If you've got little rugrats home from school over the next couple of weeks, and you're not sure what to do with them, consider the Winter Wonderfarm, a seasonal day camp at Hayes Valley Farm.

The camp aims to teach kids ages 3 to 13 about community/farming through activities and topics including: "Stewardship, Art, Plants, Soil, Worms, Service-Learning, Hands-on projects, Farm Harvested Snacks, Fun in Community, Yoga, and Song." (Had no idea kids were doing yoga these days, but glad to know they're still into worms. -ed.) The costs range from $75 per half-day course to $400 for a full 3-day enrollment -- a small price to pay for your peace and quiet your kids' enrichment. There are two sessions available -- today (oops) through December 23rd, and December 27th through December 30th. Want more info? Here ya go.
