Christmas Around the Farm at Linvilla, including cut-your-own trees
It’s Christmas time at Linvilla Orchards. Enjoy the magic of the season, where Christmas traditions and festive experiences come together to create unforgettable holiday memories. From picking the perfect tree to exploring Christmasland, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Immerse yourself in twinkling lights, handcrafted gifts, and the cozy flavors of the holidays, all set against this charming backdrop. Linvilla is your destination for making this holiday season truly special.
Start the holiday season by creating cherished family traditions at Linvilla Orchards. Take a festive hayride to pick the perfect tree, enjoy the magic of cutting your own Christmas tree, and soak in the holiday spirit as you explore all the seasonal activities we have to offer.
The returning Glice Skating Rink, a magical winter experience on this family farm, is perfect for holiday fun! Set within the heart of Christmasland, this eco-friendly synthetic ice rink lets families skate under festive lights, surrounded by holiday decor and the charm of a rustic farm setting. Skaters can enjoy the rink in any weather, gliding on a smooth, ice-like surface.
Step into Christmasland, a holiday wonderland on the farm that brings the spirit of the season to life! Stroll through the charming Makers Market, where thirty local artisans offer unique, handmade gifts perfect for holiday shopping. Savor festive flavors with wood-fired pizza, warm donuts, freshly made waffles, charcuterie boards, and cozy s’mores by the fire. Twinkling lights, seasonal decor, and the delightful scents of holiday treats make Christmasland a magical destination for families and friends.
Linvilla’s selection of holiday décor has everything you need to deck the halls, from vibrant poinsettias and unique ornaments to one-of-a-kind decorations and collectible Christmas gifts. For an extra-special touch, choose from their wreath collection, which includes both elegantly simple designs and statement pieces that will make your home stand out. Or, get hands-on by crafting your own wreath in one of their wreath making classes.
Join Linvilla on weekends to visit Santa and his elves in Santa’s Workshop. Santa will be stopping by every Saturday and Sunday November 29 – December 21, from 11 am-1 pm and 2-4 pm. Because Santa is outdoors, bundle up in your best holiday coats and bring your Christmas list to remind Santa of what you are wishing for, since we know you’ve been so good this year! While you wait, children’s crafts will be available. Remember to bring your camera to capture the moment!
Other entertainment this year includes the amazing artistry of ice sculptor, Don Lowing along with the harmonious sounds from a musical lineup including the Mansfield Brass Band. Savor classic lunch favorites like hamburgers, hotdogs, and freshly made wood-fired pizza. And don’t miss their famous Holly Jolly Donuts—warm Linvilla Apple Cider Donuts topped with festive flavors, a treat sure to delight your taste buds, as well as new festive holiday drinks served in souvenir mugs for a limited time.
Before you head home, be sure to stop by the bakery and take-home delicious treats for your holiday celebration. For more information on Christmas Around the Farm, visit Linvilla.com.
