Answers to Common Questions about our Trees

 Do you have pre-cut or shipped-in trees?
Nope. Everything is grown on the farm and still growing in the ground when you come to pick out a tree. A fresh-cut tree smells wonderful.

 How long will a Christmas tree last in my house?
 It depends on the tree and attention you give it. All cut trees need water. Please keep your tree's water dish full, no extra plant food is necessary. Five to six weeks is reasonable for a cut Christmas tree. Excellent needle-retentive choices include Canaan fir, Eastern White pine, and Scotch pine. Norway and Colorado spruce rate fair, while a White spruce rates poor, so cut only very close to Christmas time if that's what you want. Instead, consider Ball and Burlapped White spruce for wet sites when you plant in the fall.  

How many trees do you have growing on the farm?
We have eighteen acres devoted to growing various hardwoods, ornamentals, and evergreens. There are literally thousands of trees growing in all
different stages of life.

Can I plant a Ball and Burlapped tree right now?
We only dig trees when it is the right time of year to plant, Spring and Fall. The ground needs to be thawed once Spring hits, and relatively dry in the fall before the snow flies.
