Last Sunday’s open house at Endswell Farm offered a daytime showing of the light display, visits with the animals, delicious treats and crafts.
The lights are the project of Yvonne McSkimming, who, over the years, has collected 50 thousand Christmas lights. Normally the lights go up on her home, but this year they are adding a splash of colour to nights at Endswell.
McSkimming says that she only managed to incoporate 40 thousand of her lights into the display at the farm.
“It is a completly different landscape, so I just couldn’t quite make them all fit,” she says. “Next year I’ll try for more.”
On Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings, anyone who stops by Endswell to see the lights can help themselves to a hot chocolate. Collected donations go to the Christmas Hamper fund.
