Free pumpkin plants!

This Saturday 6/11 at the Capital District Farmers Market in Menands you can get a free pumpkin plant while supplies last!  Pumpkins are really easy to grow, require full sunlight and enough room to grow and that's it.  

Each person can receive up to 5 pumpkin plants.

Please help!!!!

I received this email from a friend today:

 

Please see the notice below about one of our students who is missing. We are trying to assist as much as possible.

 

 

Brett Valente has been missing since Monday after school. A sophomore at Shen, he was last seen on his bike near the Clifton Park/Halfmoon library on Moe Rd. His parents have not heard from him all night. If you have seen him please contact the Saratoga County Sheriff / NYS police by dialing 911.

 

Please also forward this to your contacts in the community.

 

Thanks

 

 

 

Mom's Club in the Capital Region

I have been wanting to put together a list of Mom's Clubs in the area and then I discovered Sandra at Albany Kid had already done lots of hard work putting it together!

Check out her very comprehensive list here.

What's going on at The Fresh Market this weekend:

Are you a teacher?

 

Turtle fun!

Pottery Barn Kids is hosting a National Geographic sea turtle day May 21st at 10am.  Come learn all about sea turtles and have fun doing it!

Baby Animals

Indian Ladder Farms hosts Baby Animal Days from May 7-22nd.  Each day from 9am-5pm you can pet and learn about baby farm animals!  Admission is only $5 per child, last time I went Moms were free.

I highly suggest going during the week if you can, it much less crowded and your kids really get some one on one time with the animals.  The staff is wonderful and loves kids and it shows.

Chicks, pigs, rabbits, calves, lambs, and more.  They also have a really cool playground and picnic tables.
