## About

Charmingfare Farm turns its trails into a Christmas route to Santa's North Pole on late-November and December weekends. Families choose how to get there: a shared horse-drawn wagon or sleigh ride through the 20-minute decorated Christmas Trail, a private four-seat vis-a-vis sleigh, or a quick tractor-train Express ride that skips the trail. At the North Pole, Santa waits in the Reindeer Barn, children can drop letters in his North Pole mailbox, and there are live reindeer, sugar cookies and hot cocoa. Before or after the ride, kids can feed the barnyard animals (feed sold at checkout) and roast s'mores at campfires. Rides go out regardless of snow, on wheels if the trail is bare, so dress for an hour or more outdoors. Check-in times are booked in advance and late arrivals may miss their ride.
