We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who visited us this fall season! Whether you joined us for a weekday school field trip or a weekend adventure, we truly enjoyed hosting you and hope you made some wonderful memories here.

As the air grows colder, we're all eagerly awaiting the magic, warmth, and joy that the Christmas season brings. We’re looking forward to celebrating winter together with fun activities for you and your family. Take a look at the Christmas events we have planned!

Letters to Santa

Santa is making his list and checking it twice, but he needs your help! Kids are invited to send their letters to Santa at Ebert’s Greenhouse Village. Santa’s workshop is bustling with holiday cheer, so all letters must be submitted by December 16th to ensure Santa has time to reply.

Drop off your letters at our special North Pole mailbox during your visit, or mail them to:
Ebert's Greenhouse Village
Attn: Letters to Santa
W1795 Fox Rd
Ixonia, WI 53036

Need a little help getting started? We’ve got you covered! At the bottom of this webpage, you’ll find two printable letter templates—one for younger kids and one for older kids. Simply download, print, and let the holiday magic begin!

(Don’t forget to include your return address so Santa can write back! Let’s make this Christmas extra special for the little ones.) 

Spread Holiday Cheer with Coloring Pages!
We’re also hosting a special community outreach project! Kids can color our festive holiday coloring page, and we’ll deliver the finished masterpieces to local nursing homes to brighten residents’ holidays. The coloring page is available for download at the bottom of this webpage.

Completed coloring pages must be returned by December 16th.
