Frontier Christmas December 6, 2008

Experience the enchantment of a Christmas Eve celebrated in traditional fashion. Afternoon activities at the 1917-era Jensen Historical Farm include trimming the tree in the parlor, Christmas baking in the farmhouse kitchen, and learning about early holiday traditions that have influenced Cache Valley. In the evening, stop in to see the live Nativity in the Martin Ford Oxen Barn, and then take a guided "reflection tour" of the farm site while interpreters demonstrate how Christmas was celebrated almost a century ago. Don't miss the evening "Parade of Angels." Wagon or sleigh rides will be running throughout the day, and children will love making traditional Christmas crafts at the farmhouse to take home. Caroling and other musical entertainment will be on hand, and delicious hot wassail will be served with cookies. Children will want to make sure not to miss Santa Claus' annual visit.
