Garden Faire At Edna Maguire Elementary School

Families are invited to experience the magic of this year’s Garden Faire at Edna Maguire Elementary School on Sunday, May 1, from 12 to 4 p.m. Parking and admission for the annual fundraiser for the Mill Valley Children’s Garden are free. Tickets for activities and food can be purchased at the event, credit cards accepted.

This year, we are excited to be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Edna Garden, our silver anniversary! In addition, the faire will take place on May Day and will feature a Maypole dance. Garden fairies will be on hand to help guests enjoy favorite crafts and games, such as fairy house building, creating potions, wreath making, hunting for golden eggs, nibbling on donut trees and bobbing for apples. Other activities will include face painting, hair extensions, and henna tattoos. DJ Jason will fill the garden with toe-tapping music while an array of eateries will serve up fresh, delicious local food.

Still hungry? Join in the pie-eating contest, back by popular demand! We're also bringing back another crowd-pleasing favorite: the Edna Maguire Bake-Off. Our panel of celebrity judges will choose the winners, who will score fabulous prizes, such as a gift certificate from Vasco’s Restaurant and Gioia Pizzeria. This year, we will have an adult competition and a kids competition (13 and under). To enter the Bake-Off, please sign up at the Edna Maguire front office or contact Coleen.

100% of the proceeds go to the Mill Valley Children’s Garden. For festival information, call 415-389-7733 or visit ednamaguire.org.
