Join us for Sensory-Friendly Photos with Santa at Weir River Farm! Enjoy December on the Farm by meeting Santa Claus, getting your photo taken, and visiting with our furry barnyard friends! Photos with Santa taken by photographer, Sarah Cincotta, are included with the program, however, participants are welcome to snap their own photos if they prefer. Participants can sign up for a time slot at 10AM, 10:30AM, 11AM, or 11:30AM. Each family/group has approximately five minutes for photos with Santa.
While waiting for your turn to get a photo with Santa, you’ll have the opportunity to explore the barnyard and experience farm life at Weir River Farm. In the barnyard, meet our chickens and piglets. Have a chance to interact with our goats and sheep. Then, consider exploring the woodland trails. Come experience all that Weir River Farm has to offer!
This program offers dedicated time slots with a reduced number of guests and quieter sensory friendly environment. Any family that would benefit from a limited capacity visit is welcome.
Resources available to prepare for your visit include a Social Story Guide available online, here. A special sensory kit is available. You may borrow noise-reducing headphones and sensory items for easier access during your visit. Please note that we have a limited number of sensory kits and headphones available and strongly encourage participants to bring anything they expect to need.
Anything you want us to know to make your photoshoot easier? Please contact Senior Regional Engagement Manager, Elyssa Scheck, at weirriver@thetrustees.org, with any questions or special requests.
