Winter Weekends at the Farm

February is a Winter Wonderland at Billings Farm!

Enjoy scenic winter landscapes among the barns and pastures of Billings Farm & Museum in February. Open each Saturday & Sunday from 10am-4pm, plus the week of President’s Day with engaging activities indoors and out for visitors of all ages.

Farm Animals & Winter Fun  Visit the sheep, chickens and goats all cozy in the Small Animal Barn.

Don snowshoes – bring your own or rent from the nearby Woodstock Inn & Resort Nordic Center – and venture through the picturesque snow-covered farm fields and along the Ottauquechee River.

Bring your sled to speed down the small hill next to the orchard. Gather round the fire pit and warm up with hot cider and s’mores. Families can enjoy a poetic stroll along the Story Walk pasture fence featuring “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost.

Dip a candle to take home.
