The popular Deck the Farm celebration at Amber Waves Farm in Amagansett happens on Saturday from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

"We welcome people to sit around a fire, listen to local carolers, enjoy seasonal food and drink available in our market, holiday nature crafts for kids, caroling, and a special 'light up the tractors' moment in our fields," the farm's team says on the Amber Waves website.

There will be s'mores making at the multiple fire pits from 4:30 to 5, at which point the action will move to the lighting of the tractors followed by a visit from a special someone from points north.

Tickets, which cost $30 for adults and $10, can be purchased at the farm on Saturday or on the farm's website. Adult tickets include a beer and wine ticket, while supplies last.

David Mulford, played in the leadup to the 1776 Battle of Long Island, and of his fate during the region’s subsequent occupation by the British.
