Looking for something magical to do with the family this weekend?
Glacier Valley Farm’s Winter Wonderland is back for one weekend on Dec. 21st and 22nd from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., promising cosy, festive fun for everyone.
Now in its third year, this family-friendly event has all the ingredients for a heartwarming day out.
From Santa and mini goats in holiday outfits to the much-loved Bunny Snuggles area, the farm invites visitors to slow down, meet the animals, and embrace the holiday spirit.
“It’s like a cute little family winter wonderland,” says Kelly Hitchcock, one of the farm’s owners. “We’ve got animal petting, a Santa grotto set up with baby goats in Santa outfits, and even a professional photographer to capture it all. It’s really cute!”
And it doesn’t stop at bunnies and goats.
For those who adore bigger animals, Hitchcock adds, “We’ve got all the horses in the stalls, so people can come in, feed the horses, pat them, it’s really sweet to see kids interacting with them.”
But the magic doesn’t end with animals.
Families can explore a quaint local market featuring handmade gifts like honey from the farm, handcrafted candles, and stocking stuffers. “All of our vendors are first-timers,” Hitchcock said.
“They don’t usually do big markets, so it’s all very special and local.”
What’s new this year? Puppies!
“We’ve got puppies this year!” Hitchcock says with excitement.
Seven adorable puppies will be at the farm and are also up for adoption. “It’s just nice, wholesome family fun,” said Hitchcock.
The Winter Wonderland event has grown in popularity since it began three years ago, offering visitors a chance to meet animals, explore the farm, and support local artisans.
