The 4-H Education Center at Auerfarm is excited to host a heartwarming holiday experience for families in Greater Hartford with two special events on Saturday, December 7, 2024. The festivities will begin with a “Breakfast with Santa” from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m., followed by the free “Santa on the Farm” event from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Both events offer families an opportunity to enjoy holiday cheer in the beautiful, rustic setting of Auerfarm.

“We’re thrilled to offer this magical holiday experience,” said Jonni Marshall, Director of Education at Auerfarm. “It’s a wonderful opportunity for the community to come together, enjoy our beautiful farm, and create lasting memories. Last year, we welcomed over 500 families, and we look forward to meeting new faces and welcoming returning visitors for another unforgettable day.”

Families are encouraged to bring cameras to capture special holiday moments with Santa, and those who purchase a Christmas tree can take home a little bit of the farm’s holiday spirit.
