Tips:
- If the name of the farm is blue with an underline; that's a link to their website or Facebook page. Click on it for the most current hours and information.
- ALWAYS email or call the farm or store BEFORE YOU GO
- many farms have closed in the past year, and of course, we won't know until the season starts and we find they aren't open! Call to confirm their supply, their hours
and whether they have trees, are allowing choose-and-cut or just precut trees; and which attractions or winter activities are available.
All three can change during the short Christmas season, due to weather, demand and the farmer's business conditions! Farms get sold, shut down or run out of trees, and they don't all update me every day, let alone every year. For

Comments from a visitor on December 01, 2012: "Love this
U-cut tree farm. Bill has beautiful spruce trees. He will trailer
your tree back to the parking lot where they shake and bale them and
help you put it on your car. Also, have door wreaths for sale. Very
reasonable prices and high quality trees."
