"Let's say it's a Thursday evening and you're thinking of cool places to take your friends while they're in town. Maybe you're new to Berkeley and want to get to know the city better. Or perhaps you'd like to take someone out on a date but can't seem to find anything fun to do without breaking the bank. We hope this non-comprehensive guide to budget-friendly things to do in Berkeley will help you plan your social week."
"Featuring iconic Berkeley activities like kite-flying at the Marina and flower-sniffing at the Rose Garden, as well as more underrated attractions such as visiting museums devoted to sake or lace, we've organized this list by day of the week and included a section of activities you can do pretty much any time (though we recommend checking the website before you go)."
"Visit the Tilden Little Farm and feed the animals lettuce or celery (please don't feed them anything else). Built in 1955, the farm features cows, sheep, goats, rabbits, ducks, turkeys, chickens and pigs. Read our story. Open daily, 5 a.m.-10 p.m. unless otherwise posted. FREE"
