We’re so proud of our amazing team (these are just some of them). We started this A Country Christmas to shine LIGHT and spread JOY in our community during this dark time. We hired 54 staff, provided a venue for over 30 local business to sell their product’s and injected $100,000’s of dollars into our local economy. With today’s announcement to shut down the Province to stop the spread of Covid, we will be forced to close our Farm for the season on December 23.... If you have tickets for after Christmas, you will be receiving an email shortly with options. While it is fitting that this announcement of a lockdown comes on the darkest day of the year- the Winter Solstice- we are still shining our lights for the next 3 nights. Please come and visit TONIGHT, TOMORROW AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT to shop in our store, see our beautiful light show and get into the Christmas Spirit. We are truly grateful for your support.

For our last minute Christmas shoppers!! Give the gift of 'Saunders Farm' this holiday season. We have many delicious goodies, wonderful handcrafted gift ideas for stockings or under the tree, and the gift of giving a family our Country Christmas Nighttime Experience.
