February Fun!

The weather has been wacky this month, as have many of our toddlers, preschoolers, and even those sweet infants.  Recess exists to support you through those bumps in the road and to celebrate in the successes. 

Join us this month when you need a respite from the chilly wind or the wrestling to re-apply sunscreen on those shockingly warm winter days.  Whatever the weather, we have some really wonderful parent workshops coming up, super fun kids classes & activities and new kids classes.  

And, if schedules aren't your thing...we hear you!  Just come in and play!

More about Bare Snacks

Simplicity: less is more, in snacking and beyond

Goodness: our snacks must taste good and be good for you, and it matters that we respect the earth and others in the process

Being real: we bake what nature makes without trying to ‘fix’ imperfections, and everything you need to know is on the bag

Living life fully: it’s the little things that bring the most joy to everyday life

More about Purely Drinks

Inspired by thousand-year old tradition of vinegar making combined with a modern approach. Drinking vinegar is an ancient practice that dates back thousands of years, an elixir due to its known health benefits.

Enjoy Purely with sparkling water as a refreshing alcohol-free beverage or paired with fine spirits as a crafted cocktail/mocktail.
