Join us for a Veterans Day garden workday. There is much to do in the pollinator garden and teaching gardens. Elementary School-age kids need to be accompanied by an adult. Middle and High School students can volunteer by themselves.

I hope to see you there!

Time to show our community a little extra TLC by coming together to pick up trash along the Harbor Bay Trail. Meet at the Harbor Bay Ferry Terminal Parking Lot. Please bring your own gloves, trash collection receptacles (buckets, garbage bag), and water bottles for staying hydrated. We will be picking up trash only along the trail, not on the rocks nor near the water. We will have some trash pickers for students to use but may have to take turns. Please follow all AUSD-recommended Covid 19 safety precautions. The event will be rescheduled if inclement weather is forecasted. Hope to see you there!

Explore new books, shop for character paraphernalia, and support Bay Farm too! Bay Farm’s book fairs are a fun way for students to demonstrate shopping independence and purchase books they love. The fair is open daily during lunch and after school, October 1st through the 7th. We hope to see you there!

Calling all Bay Farm Gardeners, 

Join us for the next Garden Workday at Bay Farm School this Saturday, October 2nd at 9am. We have a new 4th & 5th grade garden teacher, so will be getting the 4/5 teaching garden in shape amongst other things.

Middle School and High School students can work come to the garden work days by themselves but Elementary School students need to be accompanied by an adult. I will happily sign community volunteer forms for any Middle or High School students who come and help. Everyone, regardless of vaccination status, must wear a mask while on school property and have their own, signed waiver form.

The Bay Farm Book Fair is Back! Students are invited to peruse and purchase books during their regularly scheduled Media Center class. During each library visit we will be viewing and talking about the online flyers, looking at the books delivered to our Fair, making purchases, watching Book videos and trailers about favorite titles and series featured, and selecting new books for our Library shelves. Students will also sign up for our Book Fair Give-Away where they have a chance to win some of the most popular titles at the Fair!

You can create an eWallet for each student so they can purchase books during their library visit. It’s so easy to do….Click here for an FAQ and directions on how to set up an eWallet. We also can take cash for Book Fair purchases, and students can make wish lists during their visits that you can also purchase online. Here is the link to our Book Fair Information Homepage. You can see the dates of the fair, a link to set-up eWallet, view the online flyer, and shop the Virtual and Online fair.

Thank you for supporting our Fall Book Fair and helping us add new titles to our Library shelves and Classroom libraries. Together we are cultivating a community of life-long readers! 
Happy Reading! 

Join our community and Californian’s from across the state in participating in California’s annual Coastal Cleanup Day! Let’s come together (safely!) to help remove the trash and plastic pollution from our environment, demonstrate a commitment to healthy waters and ecosystems, and accomplish something meaningful. 

Join the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) staff in-person on September 18th at a local shoreline (including Crown Beach or MLK Regional Shoreline). Visit the EBRPD webpage for more information and to register for the in-person event, which will have staggered start times. 

During the pandemic, you also have the option to participate in a self-guided neighborhood cleanup. Gather cleanup supplies from home, download the CleanSwell app (to count your trash and to have your trash counted!), and clean on your own time throughout September. Trash from inland areas flows downstream to the coast, so cleaning up neighborhood trash reduces marine debris, especially where we live here next to the Bay.

Visit the CA Coastal Cleanup Day webpage or the East Bay Regional Park webpage for more information.

Hi Bay Farm Gardeners!
