## About

For a rustic North Georgia farm holiday, A Country Christmas at Pettit Creek Farms in Cartersville offers a festive drive-through and tractor-pulled hayride across 80 acres of working farmland. More than a mile of sparkling LED holiday lights illuminate whimsical displays, patriotic scenes, nativity layouts, and tunnels of light. Guests can choose between cruising through the displays in their own vehicle or climbing aboard an open-air tractor hayride bundled in blankets with neighbors under the starlit sky.

The farm's biggest draw is the chance to meet Santa Claus alongside his live reindeer, Comet and Cupid, every Thursday through Sunday evening. Children can snap keepsake photos with the reindeer using their own cameras, feed exotic animals at the walk-through petting zoo (including camels, zebra, goats, and sheep), roast marshmallows over campfires for s'mores, and pick out a fresh-cut Fraser fir Christmas tree to take home. Hot cocoa, spiced cider, and funnel cakes are available at the farm barn concessions.
