It’s Christmas tree time! Here’s the low-down on getting a tree from our farm in 2024…Although its similar to previous years, there have been some notable changes. Read on…

We plan to be open for only TWO DAYS this year: Saturday, November 30th, and Sunday, December 1st, from 9am – 4 pm. What could alter those dates? We could run out of trees, the weather could be especially bad (though we usually operate rain or shine, but you never know), etc. Therefore, its a good idea to CALL 732-873-3206 the evening before or morning of when you plan to visit and listen to the message for updates. As an aside, WE DO NOT HAVE/MAINTAIN A FACEBOOK PAGE.

How much are the trees this year? After holding the same price for three years running, despite significant rising costs, we’ve adjusted our price a bit to $65 each, no matter the species or size. We accept cash, checks and credit cards (so long as the card reader is behaving itself) as forms of payment.

Which species of trees do we have? White pine (not many), scotch pine (also not many), Canaan fir (not many again), concolor fir (ditto on the not many thing), Colorado spruce (and again) and Norway spruce (the most numerous tree species we have). We have trees that are in the 5 1/2′-6′ range, and a few (very few) that are taller than that, but most are shorter than 5 1/2 feet.

Do you need to bring a saw? Nope. We have hand saws you can use, and also farm staff who will cut the tree if you prefer. If you want to cut the tree yourself, we suggest sturdy leather/canvas gloves to protect your hands, and clothes/footwear that you don’t mind getting dirty (you’ll be on all fours if you’d like to cut your own tree). Even if you want us to cut the tree, dress like you’re visiting a working farm. Do NOT bring an ax to cut your tree!

Can we take pictures? Only AFTER A TREE IS PURCHASED. Anyone who has come to our farm knows that we don’t have a huge parking area. When people come to the farm with the sole intent of using it as a photo backdrop they are taking up valuable parking space as well as contributing a significant amount of wear-and-tear on our grounds. We don’t need the extra traffic either. Therefore, we require that a tree be purchased before any photos are taken. Our farm staff are often happy to take photos of your group with your purchased tree!

More Questions? Give a call or send an email, but please be aware we’re spending lots of time in the field these days but we do our best to get back to you as soon as we can.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

This Saturday and Sunday (December 4 & 5th) will be our last weekend for selling Christmas trees for the 2021 season. We still have white pine, Scotch pine, Norway Spruce, blue spruce, Canaan fir and concolor fir trees, but they’re averaging 5′ or shorter (there’s a few that are 6′ or taller, but not many). Regardless of size, they are $60 each. If you think a tree that size will be enough to entice Santa to leave presents under the tree, we’ll be open 9am – 4pm both days for you to check the trees out.

Do you need to bring a saw to cut down your tree? Nope. We have bow saws you can use and also people to help you finish the job in case you need help. DO NOT BRING AN AX TO CUT DOWN YOUR TREE!! If you intend to cut the tree yourself, do yourself a favor and wear sturdy leather or canvas gloves to protect your hands, and pants/clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty since you’ll be on all fours to make the cut. We have people to help get your tree out of the field and on your vehicle, but keep in mind you will ultimately be the one who determines if the tree is adequately secured to the vehicle.

Be sure to check our post from November 18, 2021 for additional information that you might find helpful to prepare for your visit.

No matter what, always bring your SENSE OF HUMOR!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
