How Christmas Eve Really Looks on the Farm

Video:


While most people are inside celebrating, farm life doesn’t pause for the holidays. This is what Christmas Eve really looks like on the farm — fence building, chores that can’t wait, and making sure everything is taken care of before the day is done.
