Christmas trees!
It’s time to start thinking about getting a Christmas tree, people! Before you dust off that old artificial monstrosity you have in the basement, think about supporting one of the area’s local farms and lots. We’ve put together a list to help you find the perfect tree for the holidays.
Note: This is last year’s post but it’s probably still useful!
It’s time to start thinking about getting a Christmas tree, people!

Most locations require cash or checks, but call ahead to be make sure you’re carrying proper tender. (And if you know of any other Christmas tree spots around town, be sure to let us know!)
