Santa drives a tractor, too!

Posted by Kimberly Sherman November 26, 2007 01:38 PM

Farms aren't just for pumpkin-tossing any more! Join Santa Claus, Carlton the Mouse, farm animals, and real reindeer at Charmingfare Farm in Candia, N.H. for a fully decorated Tractor Train Ride. Running on December 1 & 2 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. [Santa shows his rosy cheeks at noontime], the train ride only takes 20 minutes, but families should plan about 2 hours of fun as the kids can also take pictures with Santa and hand their carefully drawn up Christmas lists to Santa himself. Admission is $11 per person (Children 1 year and under free) and an additional $3 for the "Tractor Train Ride" with Santa at the wheel! [you can also shop for your Christmas tree here...]
