VIDEO: Victorian Christmas opens this weekend at O’Keefe Ranch

Victorian Christmas has been happening at O’Keefe Ranch for a number of years, but this season they decided to extend their holiday activity to run right through December.

“It’s only ever been one weekend, but this year we decided that Christmas needs to be celebrated longer than that,” laughed Diane Llewelyn-Jones, Guest Experience Coordinator.

This year, patrons have the opportunity to enjoy wagon rides, high tea, and live music happening at the ranch every Saturday and Sunday from 10 am - 4 pm right up until Dec. 19!

The big man in red, St. Nicholas himself will also be making a guest appearance to take photos with everyone who stops by!

“We’re encouraging people to bring their pets, because lots of times when you get photographs taken they’re in a mall and you can’t bring your pets in; but on the ranch animals are welcome,” said Llewelyn-Jones.

Entries for a gingerbread making contest were taken prior to opening day, but guests coming to the farm will be able to help judge which one’s they think are the best!

The North Okanagan Model Railway Association will also be hosting a gingerbread train making station for kids every weekend in the Greenhow Museum on the property.

Enjoy roasted chestnuts and warm drinks as you stroll through the decorated Christmas lights and the Victorian-esque decorated pavilion.

Admission is by donation this year, as O’Keefe Ranch hopes to invite as many families as they can to enjoy the holiday cheer on the property.
