As typical for us, we’ve been busy with the farm and with other work this year. Our person that has been mowing the fields for us has retired this year. We are so appreciative of all the work he has done for us. We send a Huge shout out of THANK YOU.
Dave and I have been doing most of the mowing this year with some of the grand children helping. It’s amazing how quickly they grow to that teenage age and are capable of doing some of the farm chores to help out. The best part of that is that the grand children are enjoying being on the farm as much as we enjoy it. They are learning the skills of caring for the trees and we love having them working with us.
The Farm has a new mascot! He’s a year old and cute as a button. He loves meeting people and can’t wag his tail fast enough to show how excited he is to meet you. Hopefully we will be able to have him in the field this year enjoying the time with everyone. He’s still being trained and doesn’t always listen, so if he comes to the field, it will definitely be an adventure.
The Staff at Miracle Acres is so excited to spend another Christmas season watching all your family traditions. We truly enjoy visiting with you all each year. So, it’s definitely time to consider your wonderful Christmas family traditions, and come visit our tree farm to get your beautiful Christmas tree. Last year with your help was such a success that we sold out our quota for the year in two days, so plan on coming early.
On Friday November 29th and Saturday November 30th, as well as each following Saturday that we remain open, we will have our typical free hot drinks, wagon rides and if weather permitting our campfire. We also will have our usual Maple syrup, Maple candy and Maple nuts available to purchase. Wreaths will be available also, but if you can, please order in advance. The wreaths are made on the premises from our freshly cut boughs.
We are opening as usual the day after Thanksgiving, November 29, 2024. We open at 9am. We ask for the sake of our staff that you wait till 9 am to come. Many a year we have people showing up early and although we really enjoy everybody’s excitement, we need the time to set up for each day. The hours will be 9am to dark on Friday and Saturday, November 29th and November 30th. As always we are closed on Sundays. But if you can, plan to come opening weekend, for we have closed after 2 days of sales the past 2 years.
During the week, Monday thru Friday, after opening day weekend, we aren’t in the field, so we ask that you come by appointment.
This year again, we will have a few artisans that will be selling their creations. Their crafty creations may make for wonderful Christmas presents. So if you need that special something to fill in for a last minute present, take a look at what they made. You may just find the perfect gift in the mix. You can see examples of what might be available below.
