Just because Christmas is over doesn’t mean life goes back to normal right away! Here at the farm we’re always getting phone calls from families looking for ways to keep the kids and visiting relatives busy during the holiday break week! So we came up with Encore of the Lights! Climb aboard our horse drawn ride and travel 30 minutes through our Christmas light displays and see the Reindeer at the North Pole.
