Celebrating mom can be as simple and thoughtful as buying a card, a gift, a meal or just saying, “thanks.” Last year we did a feature on children who were given a ride so they could visit their moms in prison. Mothers come in all shapes, sizes and interests and for those seeking something special here are a few festivals that have “Mother’s Day” written all over them:
- Stinson Beach Annual Mother’s Day Picnic
- Calico Ghost Town Mother’s Day Bluegrass Music Festival
- Chocolate Festivals at San Diego Botanic Garden (Encinitas) and Paradise Chocolate Festival
- Amador Flower Farm Mother’s Day – picnic under the oaks, free tram ride, 1,000 varieties of daylilies
- Art Fairs: Sunset Beach Mother’s Day Weekend Art Festival; Mother’s Day Artisan Fair in Suisun City; Studio City Mother’s Day Festival of Arts and Crafts; Los Banos Mother’s Day in Pacheco Park Arts and Crafts Show
