Join the annual tradition of Wassail Weekend in Woodstock, Vermont.
Begin with the festive wassailing of the Billings Farm orchard. Gather with us to take part in this age-old custom of singing to the apple trees and sharing bread and cider to chase away spirits and ensure a bountiful harvest in the year ahead.
Step into the charm of a Victorian holiday as the farm is beautifully transformed with twinkling lights and seasonal décor. Walk through the Historic Farmhouse, adorned in traditional 19th-century holiday trim, with Interpreters on hand to share stories and traditions of holidays past.
Learn about the history of Wassail and enjoy timeless activities like candle dipping, interactive butter-making, and apple tasting- including dried apples and homemade applesauce.
Warm up by the outdoor fire pits with a cup of cocoa, hot spiced cider, or coffee, warm Wassail Punch, a mulled blend of citrus juices and spices, available for purchase.
Enjoy a horse-drawn sleigh or wagon ride through the picturesque pastures on select days, weather permitting.
Before heading home, be sure to browse the Museum Gift Shop for unique, Vermont-made treasures, perfect for holiday giving.
