EVENT: Trim-A-Tree Christmas Party

Join us at the Swedish Cabin, part of the 1600’s New Sweden Colony, to welcome Christmas on December 15, from 1-3PM!

Help decorate the tree and enjoy food & drink from the Julbord (Christmas Table). Tomte search for the kids and a craft station. Tour the Cabin and warm yourself by the roaring fires. Shop the Butiken for gifts and Cabin swag.
