Tips on Choosing, Cutting, Buying and Caring for Your Tree

Use Our Saws or Bring Your Own

Topping: Cutting the Top Few Feet of a Tree

Big Tree, Small Tree -- All the Same Price

We provide small, foldable saws for your use, or you can bring your own. 

We do ask that only adults carry and use saws. Chainsaws and axes are not allowed. 

Please be careful with the saws and keep the ones we provide folded until you are ready to cut.

Big Tree, Small Tree -- All the Same Price

Before choosing a tree, remember that all trees are the same price regardless of size. A 12 ft. tree is the same price as a 2 ft. tree. We do this for several reasons. One of them is because it reduces congestion in our sales area by avoiding the extra time involved in measuring a tree.

Farms that price trees by height discourage topping. This is where a large tree has the top few feet cut. This results in a tall tree being sold at a considerably lower price. At our farm, it is okay to top a tree because our pricing is geared towards the sale of medium and large trees regardless of where the cut is made.

Be Careful and Safe

Friendly Dogs are Welcome

Our farms are on hillsides. It's possible to slip and fall, step into a gopher hole or trip over a stump. The fields are filled with natural imperfections that make tree hunting fun and a bit adventurous.


Also, when driving please go no faster than 5 MPH. Children and pets can pop out from anywhere. When walking, respect the roads as there are narrow and blind corners. And be careful of speeding drivers!

Your dog or other pet is welcome on our farms. We have only two requirements. They must be friendly and on a leash. We also ask that you keep your pet away from other customers, and their pets as even a friendly pet has a bad day.

Candy Canes

Since we have been selling Christmas trees for over 60 years, we have a number of tall trees in the range of 15-20 feet. These are primarily white fir, Douglas fir and incense cedars.

Choosing Where to Cut

Choosing Where to Cut

Please try to leave at least two branches at the bottom of every tree. The branches will form a new tree in a few years. We understand that leaving branches will sometimes impact the appearance of the tree so it's okay to cut wherever you want if necessary. It is also fine to leave a high stump or even top a tree.  

Mistletoe and Holly

Fresh mistletoe and holly are available. The mistletoe is separately packaged. The holly is kept fresh in water.

Free Tree Shaking

Choosing Where to Cut

Free Tree Shaking

Some trees, especially pines, tend to collect dead needles on the inside. We offer free tree shaking to rid your tree of those needles before you take it home.

Tree Netting

Before Putting Your Tree Up

Taking Your Tree Home

For a small fee, we will net your tree after you have cut it. Netting makes transporting the tree easier as well as fitting the tree through the front door.

Taking Your Tree Home

Before Putting Your Tree Up

Taking Your Tree Home

For a small fee, we will net your tree. We recommend netting when placing the tree on a car or maneuvering a big tree through a small doorway. We also offer free twine to secure your tree on top of your car, inside the car, in your trunk or however else you take your tree home. We do not assist in tying a tree to your car because our insurance company is a grinch and forbids it.

Before Putting Your Tree Up

If you want to keep your tree fresh for weeks, we suggest two things. Before you put it in a stand of water, make a fresh cut a half-inch or more at the base. After that, make sure the water bowl doesn't go dry. It only takes a few minutes for the base to sap over when dry and the tree to stop taking water.
