Our farm

46 years on the Blue Ridge

Our family has grown fir and spruce on the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge near Bluemont, Virginia, for 46 years. Today there are more than 37,000 trees in the fields, each shaped with hand tools every year.

Land stewardship

A crop that gives back to the land

We hold ourselves to the highest standard of land stewardship, growing a sustainable and naturally biodegradable crop in an environmentally responsible way.

Besides converting a substantial amount of carbon dioxide into oxygen, our trees stabilize the soil, offer critical habitat for wildlife and make the land beautiful to look at.

Depending on weather, type and height, a tree takes 8 to 14 years to grow. We plant them as 3 or 4 year old seedlings, so have the kids count the rings on the trunk to find its age.

Our trees

Mountain Slow Grown fir and spruce

A tremendous selection of trees this year up to 12 feet, with many even taller. With water, both will easily last through the holiday season.

A Douglas Fir on the farm

Douglas Fir

Our flagship tree. Fragrant and forest green, with soft, medium-length needles and excellent needle retention. Branches are moderately strong for ornaments, and shapes range from open, with texture and depth, to heavily sheared and uniform. Walk the farm and you'll find thousands of variations to choose from.

A Colorado Blue Spruce on the farm

Colorado Blue Spruce

Extremely fragrant, with medium-short, stiff needles and very strong branches for hanging ornaments. The ideal color is what we call "Elvis Blue," though some lean to a traditional green. An open, natural-looking tree with great needle retention. With snow in its limbs, it's the classic winter scene.

At the farm

We do the heavy lifting

We shake your tree clean, bale it tight for the drive, give you twine to tie it down and can drill the trunk to fit "stand straight" style tree stands.

The sales barn has fresh wreaths made daily from our own greens, plus tree stands, pine roping, lights, tree removal bags, ribbons, bows and gallon jugs of Virginia apple cider from Winchester.

And remember to visit the famous Snack Shack for hot dogs, hot soft pretzels and hot chocolate.
