Our
tree growing methods
You
will find the finest selection of premium Christmas
trees in the area at our farm. We have been growing
Christmas trees for over 50 years and have selected varieties
best suited for growing in our climate and for their lasting
beauty in the home at Christmas time.
In
addition, our experience has also allowed us to identify certain
seed sources for each variety that exhibit the most desirable
traits for a Christmas tree: fragrance, color, and needle
retention. All of our trees are started in our nursery. They
spend two years here before they are planted out in the fields.
This allows us to select the desirable trees and eliminate
the weaker trees, ensuring our fields have the best possible
stand of trees. Each tree is individually hand sheared each
summer for the eight to ten years it takes for a tree to reach
the appropriate size to become a family's Christmas tree.
All of our tree fields are managed in an environmentally sound
and sustainable system.
