Enjoy lunch and bike riding lessons at the Lunchbox! The Lunchbox is a food truck run by Green Mountain Farm to School, offering FREE delicious and nutritious lunches to children during the summer.
A local bicycle advocate and safe cycling instructor will offer instruction on riding strider bicycles or can help kids learn to pedal for the first time. Strider bikes and helmets will be available. Or bring your child's bicycle.
Free bicycle mechanics will also be offered.
A strider, also called a running bike, is a bicycle with no pedals. Children as young as two can learn how to run and glide, teaching them balance. Striders are considered the best way for children to learn how to ride a bicycle. Ditch those training wheels!
