How it works
From the field to your car roof
Park and grab a saw

Find your tree
Wander the fields of fir and spruce. Kids love running between the rows, and adults love the amazing Blue Ridge views.
Bring it to the barn
We tag it with your initials, shake it clean, bale it tight and price it.
Head home
Take the tractor ride with your tree down to the parking area, or feel free to take the easy walk.
Our trees
Mountain Slow Grown, shaped with hand tools
We shape all of our trees with hand tools only, so every tree retains its natural beauty.
Douglas Fir is our flagship: fragrant, forest green, soft needles and excellent needle retention. Walk the farm and you'll find thousands of variations to choose from.
Colorado Blue Spruce is extremely fragrant, with stiff needles and very strong branches for heavy ornaments. The ideal color is what we call "Elvis Blue."
A tremendous selection of trees this year up to 12 feet, with many even taller.
