Our Trees

When you visit us to shop for a Christmas tree you’ll notice right away that our trees are the highest quality available, grown by local, family farms. We offer unique varieties and natural shapes for an extraordinary tree.

This year, we are carrying Noble Fir, Fraser Fir, Nordmann Fir,  and the coveted 'Burton Blue' Fir. See below what makes each variety unique and the differences in shape, color, and needle structure.

Our trees are available in three different densities: Alpine, Forest Edge, and Town Square.
