There’s also an indoor train display to view if you want a break from the cold.
Visit the Farm Animals
There are so many animals for the guests to view on the farm. “Pumpkin” was one of our favorites.

The animals could be inside or outside their stall, depending on the weather.
View Santa’s Reindeer
Two of Santa’s reindeer are visiting the farm for the holiday season.
Great Parks Nature Education
Staff are available onsite with hands-on learning opportunities that appeal to the curiosity of all ages.
Check Out the Curling Tent
I’m a big fan of curling, and it was really fun to play on this tabletop version of the sport that’s normally played on ice.
There are two curling lanes available where you can challenge family or friends. The goal is to have your “rock” slide as close as possible to the small center circle.
The more rocks you have in the circles, the better, especially if you knock your opponent’s rock out of the circle.
Food and Beverages at Holidays on the Farm
There are food and beverage options for an additional fee.
Food trucks rotate nightly, and there’s a Holiday Beer Garden for ages 21+ with seasonal beer and specialty cocktails.
We enjoyed hot chocolate, coffee, and a spiced chai from one of the food trucks specializing in drinks.
S’mores are also available for purchase, and there are plenty of fire pits where you can roast them.
Shop at Vendor Village
If you need any last-minute gifts, there are several huts with items from local vendors.
Prancer’s Playground Area
If you have kids with extra energy to burn, there’s a large playground.
There’s also a snowball toss nearby and a giant lightbright.
