Farmside Christmas at Fischer Farm rescheduled to Dec. 9

The Bensenville Park District has rescheduled its annual Farmside Christmas from the first Sunday of December to Saturday, Dec. 9, at Fischer Farm, 16W680 Old Grand Ave. in Bensenville.

The change was made due to inclement weather.

New in 2023 is Subie's Holiday Workshop, sponsored by Grand Subaru, where attendees can work on holiday crafts and children can enter the holiday coloring contest. Two prize packages will be awarded. Grand Subaru is also giving away a commemorative holiday ornament to families while supplies last.

From 2 to 5 p.m., visitors will be able to get into the holiday spirit with festive music and other activities and attractions that include horse and wagon rides and the live farm animals before warming up around a bonfire with hot chocolate and treats.

Santa will be on hand to greet patrons in the Granary Barn, where patrons can get their pictures taken.

Visit Mrs. Claus inside the farm house and pick up a cookie, check out the dining room Christmas train display, and visit the gift shop for additional holiday purchases.

See the Bensenville Park District Christmas Tree and Holiday Lights on the front lawn and throughout tshe property.

Admission and parking are free. Accessible parking is available on site.
