Tips & Advice

  • Farm and shops need no reservation, but Village entry is ticketed online only and weekends often sell out, so book Village nights early.
  • The cut-your-own fields close at 4 PM sharp, so arrive with time to walk the fields and find your tree.
  • Saws are provided, but you may bring your own if you prefer using it to cut your tree.
  • After cutting your tree, bring it to a main road so farm staff can transport it to the baling and pickup area.
  • Call ahead if you want a particular pre-cut variety, since selection can change throughout the season.
