Firefly Farm invites you to our Christmas Wreath workshop. This workshop will be held on Saturday, November 29, 2025 from 1-4 pm. You make your own wreath with our guidance, from start to finish! We provide farm fresh evergreens, berries, pine cones and other natural materials to choose from – all gathered from our farm. Top off your wreath with a festive bow. There will be hot chocolate, cider, and coffee with cookies and other snacks with holiday music to help get your creative juices flowing.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"christmas-wreath-worskshop","image":{"url":"https:\/\/visithillsboroughnc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/White-Printable-Bright-Christmas-Workshop-Promotion-Flyer-1.png","id":21503,"extension":"png","width":1545,"height":2000,"filesize":2022515,"sizes":{"medium":{"width":232,"height":300,"mime-type":"image\/png","filesize":24970,"url":"https:\/\/visithillsboroughnc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/White-Printable-Bright-Christmas-Workshop-Promotion-Flyer-1-232x300.png"},"large":{"width":791,"height":1024,"mime-type":"image\/png","filesize":192549,"url":"https:\/\/visithillsboroughnc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/White-Printable-Bright-Christmas-Workshop-Promotion-Flyer-1-791x1024.png"},"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/png","filesize":10095,"url":"https:\/\/visithillsboroughnc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/White-Printable-Bright-Christmas-Workshop-Promotion-Flyer-1-150x150.png"},"medium_large":{"width":768,"height":994,"mime-type":"image\/png","filesize":184306,"url":"https:\/\/visithillsboroughnc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/White-Printable-Bright-Christmas-Workshop-Promotion-Flyer-1-768x994.png"},"1536x1536":{"width":1187,"height":1536,"mime-type":"image\/png","filesize":397472,"url":"https:\/\/visithillsboroughnc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/White-Printable-Bright-Christmas-Workshop-Promotion-Flyer-1-1187x1536.png"}}},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2025-11-29

With proceeds benefiting the Animal Protection Society of Caswell County, well behaved pets on leashes are welcomed to visit the farm for our annual Holiday Open House on Saturday, December 13 from 10 am – 2 pm.

Santa will be outside near the Farm Market so nab your camera or phone. First-come, first served. When you RSVP you’ll decide on the donation level that works best for you. Funds benefit adoptable pooches and kitties in APS Caswell County’s care. The rural animal shelter is just up the road from the farm.<\/p>\n
If you’d like to relax and stay a while, there’s some farm seating available. You may wish to bring whatever you need to be comfortable. Wear your farm attire that you won’t mind getting dirty to include closed shoes. Restroom on site.<\/p>\n
