This is a FREE EVENT that is quickly becoming an endearing tradition on the farm.

If you want to participate, here’s what to bring:

• 12 homemade, hand-raised (barring live animals!), or handcrafted items (i.e. soaps, jams, jewelry, cheese, chocolate, cloth napkins; the sky is the limit!)

• 1 Potluck Dish to Share

• 1 or more friends (who will follow the same instructions), and

• Your awesome holiday spirit!

We are ready for this beautiful event to happen again! Please contact us to let us know you’ll be joining us, along with the number of friends so we can fill the barn with your warmth and good cheer!
