Wheatland Spring’s 7th Annual Christmas Tea with Santa
For all of those who truly believe…save the dates for one of the most magical family events of the year here at Wheatland.
New this year: We are offering TWO dates:
Sunday, December 14th
Sunday, December 21st
Tickets will be available to the public in our online “SHOP” starting Tuesday, November 4, 2025 at 10:00AM. (Fork + Rake Members receive early access to tickets.)
Each child will have personal 1:1 time with Santa. There is no standing in lines- Santa will come to your table for a chat and pictures. Hot chocolate and cookies will be served to all children. Families will gather with Santa for a 10-minute story time near the end of each session. Parents may take as many pictures as they like on their own cameras with Santa - we will not be taking pictures for sale.
Your child will have the opportunity to write Santa a letter or draw him a picture prior to his visit. Santa will write your child a personalized letter back for hand delivery on the 14th or 21st. Letters must be received in our magical Red Mailbox to the North Pole no later than Sunday, Dec. 7th (no exceptions, please!). The Red Mail Box will be available on the farm starting Friday, Nov. 21st. (Please ensure all letters/pictures have the full name of the child, first and last, as well as the name on your reservation - the adult who purchased tickets. This is the only way Santa can pair the letter with the child.)
Christmas Tea with Santa is a ticketed event. There will be no walk-up availability regardless of whether you wrote a letter. Please get your tickets early! They will sell out very quickly.
Food (including Pizzeria Loco!), snacks, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverage will be available for purchase. No outside food or beverage, please.
Every child over 12 months of age needs a ticket. This year, there will be four seatings instead of three.
First Session: 11:30AM - 1:30PM (Santa will start making his rounds at noon! The farm opens at 11AM if you would like to arrive early.) You must vacate your event table by 1:15 to make room for our session 2 families, but you are welcome to remain on the farm as long as you like until closing at 6PM.
Second Session: 1:30PM - 3:30PM (Second session families will be seated starting at 1:15. Santa will begin making his rounds at approximately 1:35. You are welcome to remain on the farm until closing at 6PM
Adults DO NOT need tickets, so bring the grandparents too! (To accommodate larger families, there is a discount for families of 3+ children. Please do not combine two families together to receive this discount. This is meant as a gesture of generosity to help larger families. If you are attending with only 1 child and that child is under 12 months of age, please buy a ticket for 1 child.)
Pricing: $24/child with a $65 max per family.
When you check out, you can leave a message if you would like to be seated with another ticketed family. Tables will be assigned so requests must be received well in advance of the event. Please only request to be seated with families who are attending on your same day and time…
There is an option to purchase either an indoor or outdoor table. Please note that outdoor tables will have a visual of Santa for a longer time, as there are more outdoor tables to visit.
Please note that many of the “indoor” tables are in our Bank Barn which is a historic, rustic barn with limited heat, so regardless of where you select, please dress warmly with a coat!
Santa will offer a 10-15 minute story time near the end of each session in our 19th century history bank barn.
We seat families each year based on family size, number of adults, etc. When reserving, please provide an accurate-as-possible adult head count. We have a playground onsite.
Over the years, we have learned that it’s important to put as much detail on this event as possible on our website. Thank you for reading through. We look forward to this day each year. We hope you’ll come and enjoy the Christmas magic with us.
