Mumford, N.Y. – Genesee Country Village & Museum in Mumford, NY, invites visitors to join in the holiday cheer of Yuletide in the Country in a 19th-century village. Visitors will explore the wintry Historic Village by candlelight and be invited into scenes that highlight celebrations and gatherings as they would have looked throughout the 1800s. Highlights will include a look at the Italian-American tradition of Festi dei Setti Pesci, French Noël, a family’s Hanukkah gathering, explorations of St. Lucy’s Day, a traditional tree lighting, and more.

Visitors may even encounter that jolly old elf, St. Nick. Yuletide Tours can be paired with a festive dinner – a GCV&M tradition featuring savory and sweet holiday dishes. Yuletide in the Country is sponsored by Valley Propane & Fuels, Cedar Street Sales & Rentals, and NFP Technology Solutions.
