MILTON - Next Saturday at the New Hampshire Farm Museum you can step back in time and tour the beautifully decorated historic Jones Farmhouse with costumed role players and experience the wonder of a Victorian Christmas.

The fun runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and includes horse-drawn wagon rides through the fields, or a sleigh ride depending on the weather.

Also, make a hand-dipped Christmas candle to take home, roast chestnuts and popcorn over the fire, and partake of gingerbread and hot cider in the farmhouse kitchen. Explore the barns, visit the blacksmith and meet the farm animals. Admission: $10 adult, $5 child/ Museum members $5/$3
