Weekday Picks for Boston Kids: Farm Fun & Outdoor Music, June 15-19

6/14/15 - By Kip Wilson Rechea

While I'm a city girl at heart and love doing fun things in town with my kids, June is a great month to head into the great outdoors. My family enjoys a good walk in the woods or a picnic accompanied by great music, but some of the most tempting events this week are happening on local farms. And if you can't get out to a farm, let one come to you! With more and more farmers' markets opening for the season and tons of strawberry festivals coming up, tasty treats are right around the corner. Whatever you choose, have a great week, and don't forget to check out our full Event Calendar!
