The Festive Family Farm In Utah That Will Remind You Of Christmases Past

So you ever wish you could experience a good, old-fashioned Christmas like your ancestors did? This little family farm hosts the most charming holiday Christmas On The Farm festivities. Take a look!

For a fun-filled, old-fashioned Christmas, visit Petersen Family Farm, which was established in 1871. The Farm is located at 11800 S. 4000 W. in Riverton.

This family-operated farm grows and sells fresh produce year-round. At Christmastime, the farm turns into a winter wonderland, where you can find the perfect Christmas tree.

Get a gorgeous wreath for your front door. The wreaths are home-grown at Local Roots Flower Farm.

Take a covered wagon ride through the farm. The wagon is pulled by a vintage tractor, and Farmer Luke will tell you a magical story about the farmer who shared his manger with Mary and Joseph.

After your wagon ride, say hello to Old St. Farmer Nick.

Wagon rides and Santa visits are offered on the following dates between now and Christmas: Friday 12/15, Saturday 12/16, Monday 12/18, Tuesday 12/19, Wednesday 12/20, Thursday 12/21 and Friday 12/22.

The cost for the wagon ride and Santa visit is $10 per person; take the wagon ride by itself for just $6, or visit Santa without the wagon ride for $6.

The farm is all decorated for the holidays.

Everything here is quaint and charming; you'll love the old-fashioned atmosphere all around the farm.

Do a bit of shopping at the Farm Market, where you'll find carefully curated, locally-made gifts and treats,

You'll find some unique gifts for loved ones, and even some produce grown in the hoop houses year-round.

Say hello to Tigger the barn cat, who loves to be scratched behind his ears.

Warm your hands by the fire, and enjoy this beautiful place!

The Petersen Family Farm is open Monday through Saturday from 9 AM to 9 PM; closed on Sunday.
