cookies with the clydesdales
Military, first responders, and their families are invited to this fun, family-friendly outdoor event.
December 13, 2025
Registration will Open October 1, 2025
Cookies with the Clydesdales is a one-day event held on our five-acre farm in Stafford, VA.
Military, first responders, and their families pay just $25 to register for a time slot for up to 10 people.
Limited time slots will be available to civilians not affiliated with the military or first responders for $100.
Event Highlights
At the event, you will follow a path around
the farm and stop at stations to learn from
our volunteers, meet the farm animals--alpacas, donkeys, and horses--have a snack,
and (of course) say hello to Santa!
You can make s'mores by the bonfire, grab a free hotdog, get a professional photo taken at the carriage, and take photos in the barnyard.
War Horse Forge
Participants will learn about our free blacksmithing program, War Horse Forge, and watch demonstrations. Adults can sign up for a future class to learn to make a knife from a railroad spike or a two-hook coat rack.
Our gift shop will be open with
hand-forged, veteran-made items as well as
alpaca-centric gifts for sale.
Registration
Space is limited! On October 1, come back to this page for a link to register.
EACH HOUSEHOLD IS ALLOWED ONE ENTRY SLOT TO CWC.
