Evergreen Season: The Subtle Beauty of Christmas at the Ranch

Happy December friends! The mornings are crisp now — the kind that carry the smell of pine and woodsmoke long before the sun crests the treeline. Out here at Blueberry Hills Ranch, December arrives quietly. The pastures glisten with frost, the air hums with stillness, and the farmhouse feels just a little more golden each evening.
Christmas has always been less about sparkle and more about light for us — the soft kind that spills from windows, flickers on wreaths, and glows inside when friends gather close.
The Ranch in Its Winter Coat
We start the season simply. Evergreen branches gathered from the woods. Handmade garlands strung over the porch. Ribbons tied on the barn doors — just enough to whisper Christmas lives here.
The animals get festive too. The goats nose through the pine branches like they’re inspecting the decorations. Tallulah the donkey brays every time someone opens the feed room door, certain there’s a peppermint waiting. Even the chickens seem to strut with extra cheer.
There’s a magic to this time of year that feels quieter than the rest — more presence, less performance.
Scenes from the Season
The porch swing wrapped in twinkle lights, steaming mugs in hand.
Snowy mornings (when we’re lucky enough to get one), footprints zigzagging toward the barn.
The kitchen glowing at dusk, cornbread cooling by the window.
Every corner of the ranch becomes its own kind of storybook, and the golden-hour light turns every snapshot into a Christmas card waiting to happen.
Your Own Evergreen Moments
If you’ve been dreaming of family photos that feel natural, nostalgic, and full of warmth — this is your moment. December at the ranch is made for it.
The fields, the farmhouse, the wreaths on the barn — everything glows. And the laughter always seems louder when the air is cold.

The Flavor of the Season
When the cameras are packed away and the barn lights flicker on, we gather in the kitchen. Soup simmering, bread baking, music playing low.
