Frequently Asked Questions

Dress for the weather — the farm is outdoors and the fields can be muddy after rain. We provide a sled, saw, bale the tree if desired, and help loading your tree. Bring rope or twine if you want extra security for the drive home, but we have some on hand too.

We grow a variety of species including Firs and some Spruce. We typically have trees ranging from 4 to 10+ feet, with something for every home and budget. Canaan and Norway Firs are our most popular.

Yes — the full price of your tree is paid at the farm on the day of your visit. We accept cash and major credit cards. Credit card payments include an additional 3.5% fee.

Living trees should be planted in loose, well-drained soil. Avoid low, wet areas that don't dry out quickly after heavy rain.

Dig a hole at least 12 inches larger than the root ball diameter and position the tree only 1–2 inches deeper than its original depth. Remove the metal basket and twine from around the trunk before planting.

Once the tree is in the hole and partially filled with soil, add about 5 gallons of water, then fill with the remaining soil. Apply approximately 2 inches of loose mulch around the base to suppress weeds.

Stake newly planted trees for two years for support. Space trees at least 15 feet apart in all directions and at least 20 feet away from buildings.

Water weekly during dry periods — a large pail with a small drainage hole works well. Each spring, apply a multi-purpose fertilizer formulated for conifers. We're happy to answer any questions about tree care!
