Mill Valley Children's Garden at Edna Maguire Turns 25, Celebrates with Garden Faire May 1
Free event to raise money for Edna Maguire's "living textbook" features the annual Edna Maguire Bake-Off, a pie-eating contest and more.
One of the many gems of Mill Valley turns 25 years old this year, andEdna Maguire Elementary School families and volunteers are throwing one heck of a party to celebrate.
The Mill Valley Children's Garden, which officially opened in 1991 after teachers, spearheaded by Susan Reynolds, staved off a proposal to pave over open space on the school's campus, is a nearly half-acre "outdoor classroom laboratory" for Edna Maguire's more than 600 students. Garden supporters are hosting the annual Garden Faire on May 1, 12-4pm, to allow the garden to continue to be an essential part of Edna Maguire's curriculum.
