The Art of Backyard Food Production: Steve and Lisa McBride

2:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Where: Theatre

Spring is in the air and the garden tools are coming out! Steve and Lisa McBride's homestead is just outside Mobile, up the southern shore. They are enthusiastically reclaiming our food heritage and DIY traditions. Please join us as Steve and Lisa take you through "The Art of Backyard Gardening" through photography, charming and interesting stories, and even some unique homestead treats to taste. The McBride's tap their maples to make syrup; they grow most of their own food, keep goats, chickens, bees and more, while inspiring thousands on their Facebook page to get growing! https://www.facebook.com/groups/633102216796004/

TOTS

Kickstart your weekend by joining us at The Rooms! Spend Saturday mornings with your little ones in our charming Harbour View Room. It's a delightful opportunity for unguided playtime amidst a variety of toys and books tailored for toddlers aged 2 to 4.

There's no need to pre-register; simply pay your admission at The Rooms front desk and then drop in anytime between 10 am and noon and let the weekend festivities commence! 

While the activities are designed for children aged 2 to 4, younger kids are more than welcome. Caregivers are required to accompany their children throughout the session. Our program room can accommodate up to 20 adults with their little ones, but if it's full, caregivers are encouraged to step back momentarily to allow space for others to join in the fun.

The Playdate is included in the cost of admission. Free for Rooms Members. 

With support from Tom and Susan (Kent) Foran Family Foundation.
