      What’s Hot In Southern California: Knott’s Berry Farm Boysenberry Festival: This spring, celebrate Knott’s delicious roots during its Boysenberry Festival harvested in the theme park’s historic Ghost Town.

    What’s Hot in Southern California :: Knott’s Merry Farm

    December 5, 2014 /

      Our family had a chance to check out Knott’s Merry Farm this month and it reminded me of how much fun Knott’s is during the holiday season.  The entire theme park is decorated in Christmas cheer and you can’t help but noticing all the little additions throughout the park.  It really does get you in the spirit of the holidays!  Plus they are known for all of their amazing rides and my daughter absolutely loves roller coasters so we could be found running from ride to ride throughout the park.  I recommend to do this before you eat lots of sweets!  Note to self for next time!     The largest Christmas Tree…

          Last week I was invited to attend the reopening of the famed Calico Mine Co. ride and 30th Celebration of Camp Snoopy at Knott’s Berry Farm.  I grew up with Knott’s Berry Farm and loved (and still do) the jelly’s (they have come out with a new jam and funnel cakes they sell at the park.  As part of the celebration of 30 years of Camp Snoopy, Knott’s revitalized the five-acre nature wonderland.  We visited Camp Snoopy during their Halloween Haunt celebrations and really had a great time – this Haunt is geared towards younger children.  The revisions include new all-encompassing trail-like stamped concrete, use of natural wood throughout,…
