Frequently Asked Questions

We highly suggest you purchase in advance online to save time and bypass the ticket booth.  To take that a step further to reduce your waiting in line we ask you to scan the code on the signs to join the virtual queue at Santa, the Grinch, and at the train ride.  We will text you when it’s close to your time to get in line so you can go explore the farm and have fun instead of being stuck in a long line.

We are proud to offer state-of-the-art restroom and kitchen facilities that are as nicest you will find around.  Just because we are a farm does not mean you have to live like a pig! 🙂

We lost count after 964,902 and did not have the time to start over.  But, if you get a chance and feel free to count them and let us know!

It takes months of planning ahead to organize the event.  Many items have to be ordered in January to arrive on time since many items are made overseas.  We start installing the lights in September to be ready to open the day after Thanksgiving.  We have a team of 20 elves that go crazy and decorate the farm.

While you and your family and friends are riding on the Christmas Wagons that go around the farm we have set up Rudolph light displays hiding in the woods.  See if you can find them all by calling out “Rudolph” when you see them.  It’s a throwback to the “Punch Bug” game many of the parents played growing up.
