Your Tree, Your Way

Do not lift a finger!
Once you have selected your perfect tree, Martin the miniature horse or Rosie the miniature donkey will gracefully transport it to the shaking and baling area.

Fraser Fir

One of America’s most popular Christmas trees — and for good reason — the Fraser fir touts blue-green needles with silvery undersides. With excellent needle retention and stiff branches, it holds up well to ornaments. Of course, the pleasant scent is a major perk, too.

Balsam Fir

If you can’t get enough of that real Christmas tree scent, you’re in luck! The Balsam fir is among the most fragrant of all species. The Balsam fir has relatively short, dark green needles and excellent form, making it a good choice for displaying ornaments.

Colorado Blue Spruce

The Colorado blue spruce is a popular choice due to its lovely silver-blue color. Its branches are stiff and hold heavy ornaments well, but take care — blue spruce needles are quite sharp! Wear gloves and long sleeves when handling. However, its needles can help keep pets away from the tree.

Concolor Fir

The Concolor fir (sometimes known as the White fir) has a stately and symmetrical form and holds ornaments well. Its needles are typically blue-green and, in some cases, can be a dramatic powder blue. The needles of the Concolor fir are longer than most other firs commonly grown for Christmas trees, giving it a coarser appearance. Concolor needles have a unique and pleasant scent that is usually described as “citrusy” or “orange-like.”

Caring for Your Tree – A Checklist

Did you know that over half of your fresh Christmas tree’s weight is water? Keep the magic alive with these simple care tips:

Hydration is Key: Get your tree in water promptly upon arrival. Even placing it in a bucket of water outdoors within the first hour or two will work wonders.
Shelter from the Elements: If immediate setup isn’t possible, keep your tree in a sheltered spot away from wind and sun, like a porch or garage.
Trim with Care: Avoid bruising the trunk’s cut end. If it happens, a fresh half-inch trim before indoor setup will do the trick.
Hydration Station: Use a stand with a water reservoir, and keep it filled. A good rule of thumb is a quart of water per inch of trunk diameter.
A Snug Fit: Use a stand that fits your tree without shaving its sides. Those outer layers are essential for absorbing water.
Keep Cool: Steer clear of direct heat sources like fireplaces, vents, or sunlight, as they accelerate the drying process.
Daily Checks: Ensure the water level stays well above the cut end of your tree.
Lighting Matters: Opt for low-heat tree lights, such as miniature bulbs. Remember to turn them off when leaving or retiring for the night.
Cooling Nights: Lower room temperature at night to slow natural drying.
