Enjoy the festive holiday tree and decorations that fill the Visitor Center and historic barn.  Discover the charm of Victorian Christmas as you explore our authentically decorated farmhouse parlor.

Warm Wassail punch, made from a mulled blend of citrus juice and spices, will be available for purchase – no admission required.

On the farm, you can meet our Jersey cows, draft horses, chickens, sheep, and goats in the barns. Select days will feature horse-drawn sleigh rides through the picturesque pastures, weather permitting.

Dip your own candle to take home. Warm up by the outdoor firepits with a cup of cocoa and s’mores, available for purchase. Light adventure can be found on a snowshoe, hike, or cross-country ski along the Ottauquechee River, weather permitting.

Shop for the holidays in the Museum Gift Shop.  Peruse our unique selection of local Vermont gifts, children’s books, adorable stuffies, specialty food items, and, of course, Billings Farm cheddar!  There’s sure to be something for everyone on your list!
