The lucky winner of the family Victorian Christmas photo shoot at Historic Stewart Farm was Lisa Boerescu. She and her family visited the farm last weekend to take in Christmas circa 1894. And you can too!
The farmhouse is open Tuesday thru Sunday with holiday cheer every single day. Decorated in authentic Victorian style with local greenery and fresh baking on the wood stove, the farmhouse and grounds have something for people of all ages. Show the kids that Christmas means more than presents or our beloved elves on the shelves! Weekdays offer a tranquil visit and weekends (open noon-4pm) they have the following family friendly activities planned:
Saturday, December 3
