SUMMARY:Farley’s Christmas Wonderland 2024
DESCRIPTION:Farley’s Christmas Wonderland 2024\nFriday\, November 29 – December 31\, 5:30 – 8:30pm’ish \nJoin us at Farley’s Christmas Wonderland. We are a walk-in Christmas display located in the midtown of Santa Cruz\, CA. Our exhibit is very traditional: lots of Christmas trees\, garlands\, sleighs\, an elf village\, miniature village’s\, and a log cabin that Santa uses for his rest stops. Being Irish\, where you have elves you have fairies and we have a fairy grotto with 2 waterfalls and fairies that can be viewed on special nights. Also\, on those special nights\, it snows here. \nUnlike all other Christmas displays where you drive by\, we are a walk-in\, where people will spend time sitting on the bench in the Fairy Garden looking and listening to the waterfall or sitting in the rocking chairs in the log cabin in front of the fireplace. If you bring small kids especially little girls\, do not expect to be leaving soon. When they discover Rivi’s house – you’re not leaving. \nDuring the Christmas holidays a lot of people travel and  where ever they go the one thing all travels want to see are Christmas decorations – they want to see how people in that country celebrate and decorate for Christmas. And every year we get more travelers from all over the world who are visiting the San Francisco Bay Area or the Monterey Bay. \nNote from Santa Cruz Parent: Children and adults alike love to visit Farley’s Winter Wonderland and have done so for years! Mr. Farley welcomes donations to help with the costs of electricity\, repairs\, replacements\, storage and more. This has been a labor of love and has become a fixture in Santa Cruz.  Your help keeping it up is most welcome.  Please Donate.

SUMMARY:Live Oak Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Live Oak Farmers Market\nSundays 9am – 1pm year round \nStarted in 2000\, Live Oak Farmers Market is a neighborhood market has grown to be a weekly event that is loved by the communities of Live Oak\, Pleasure Point and Capitola. A decade has past since this market became year round and here you will find an excellent selection of organic produce from local farms\, tree ripened fruits\, dried fruit and nuts\, fresh bread\, pastries\, seafood\, pasture-raised organic meats and more. The market is also the epicenter of the clean food movement\, showcasing amazing Sunday brunch offerings like traditional Michoacan Mexican dishes\, dumplings\, crepes and artisan hand pies. This is your Sunday destination. \n  \nMarket Match\nMarket Match offers farmers’ market customers a dollar-for-dollar match up to $10 on their CalFresh (food stamp) cards at the Live Oak Market. If a customer swipes their CalFresh card for seven dollars\, they get seven dollars in Market Match tokens for free. Swipe $10\, you get $10. The goal of this project is to encourage CalFresh (EBT/SNAP) recipients to take advantage of fresh\, locally-grown fruits and vegetables. By offering an incentive that lowers the price of fresh produce\, we are helping shoppers stretch their food dollars while keeping their families healthy. SCCFM will be offering the Market Match program for the 2020 season. Locate the information booth and the market manager to redeem EBT coins and to participate in the Market Match Program.
