At Mendocino Farms, we see ourselves as more than a restaurant; our mission is to be a neighborhood gathering place that helps build community. That’s why we’re especially thrilled to be partnering with five local elementary schools in our new neighborhood of Campbell to have their students paint mini “Mendo the Cow” statues for display in our restaurant.
Students at Alta Vista, Bagby, Castlemont, Marshall Lane and Steindorf Elementary Schools will be competing to win a $1000 cash prize for their art program, and the community (that means YOU!) will cheer them on and vote to help choose the winning cow!
RSVP NOW to join us for Family Fun on Saturday, March 31st from 11:30AM – 2:00PM, where students will be presenting their painted cows and voting will begin! Please read below for full details on how to vote! The day will be filled with fun events and activities including face painting, arts & crafts, games & prizes, food samples, and live entertainment! Your kids won’t want to miss it, so make sure you RSVP HERE to reserve a spot!
