This workshop is for kids who are able to ride a bike and are ready to take to the paths and roadways with their parents (suggested grade range 2nd-6th). The event includes instruction on: fitting a helmet performing a bike safety check communicating with other road users riding in a straight line and avoiding obstacles as well as navigating safely through intersections, all while playing fun games! All minors must be accompanied by an adult to participate, both with their own working bikes and helmets. If the class is full, you can be added to the wait list or be notified about future sessions as they are added. Please note: Our family events are for parents and kids to participate in together. If you are interested in an in-school or youth-only bike rodeo we recommend following up with our friends at Cycles of Change instead, by emailing DriveYourBike@CyclesOfChange.org.

Keep in mind that you may be walking on uneven ground, slick spots, and some stickers - so please wear comfortable sturdy footwear. Remember that we are a working farm and a healthy farm means an abundance of insect life so there will be pollinators, gnats, and mosquitos.

D dogs are always welcome to our u-picks at the farm! All dogs must be kept on a leash, well-behaved, and cleaned up after.
