Christmas at Prairie Moon Farm in Knoxville, Illinois

Honestly, I have been gearing up for the holiday season since around October 1, so when I saw this post pop up on Illinois Foodies' Facebook I immediately needed to know more...

It turns out, Prairie Moon Farm has a whole lot more Christmas cheer to offer than just hanging with super cute reindeer, although they definitely are the star attraction!

Prairie Moon Farm also has a Christmas market that is brimming with unique holiday gifts and delicious treats like; hot chocolate, flavored mochas, cookies, mini donuts, kettle corn, Amish jams, and more!
