Default Kuipers Family Farm
I do not guarantee this information, but there is a possibility that the Kuipers Family Farm near Maple Park, IL might have a reindeer. To initially discover this place, click onto their web site of www.kuipersfamilyfarm.com for the information. This public farm caters to families buying pumpkins, apples and also most likely Christmas trees. In the past, they have had lots of things oriented towards families and children.

Kuipers is located on Keslinger Road at Watson Road somewhat south of Maple Park, IL. Give them a phone call to find out about any reindeer during the Christmas holiday season.

Incidentally, I have always been curious about its pronunciation. Does one say "K- eye - Pers"... Kip - Pers... or Coopers? My guess is that the name is Dutch / Netherlands.

I looked up a couple of places that might be a bit far but not super far.

This is the closest I could find.

No silly, I can order reindeer meat from Ikea in Europe if I want to eat it.

I had some extra reindeer food that I thought I might celebrate with the young'ns.

The wife and son saw some the other day in Wheaton. Someone was actually walking 2 of them near the Danada Farms. They might have some Christmas thing going on over there?
