It’s that magical time of year when we finish off our Santa Tours, and turn to our Winter event, Christmas on the Farm. Our Santa Tours brings hundreds of visitors to our farm. They get a reindeer tour and a surprise visit with Santa, cookies, and cocoa, and photos with the jolly old man himself….
No Earthquake Damage Here Hi friends, I bet you’re wondering about that massive 7.0 earthquake we had last week. No worries here, the farm made it through just fine. The animals were calm and mellow right after the quake too. Only the farm dog was ill at ease directly following the earthquake. After a thorough examination of the farm there was zero damage discovered. Asking around it seems like older homes and buildings suffered a lot less damage than newer construction. Go figure! Winter Tours We are up and running, hosting our regular Winter Tours. You need to know though that those tours are almost booked up. If you want to come to the farm this month you need reservations! These must be booked in advance and you can do that here. Like I said do not wait to book a…

Seems like there’s a little something funky about our calendar this year! Oh wait, no those are the house babies at the Reindeer Farm, not the spring months. House babies are reindeer babies who were having a hard time outside, or with their moms, or perhaps were just too little to survive outside. One of…
