Is there anything better than the smell of a freshly cut Christmas tree? I remember the first time my dad brought home a real Christmas tree. It was huge and smelled amazing and it’s awesomeness almost drowned out my dad’s complaints about the pine needles all over the floor. Totally worth the mess. I’ve never been to a Christmas tree farm, but the husband and I plan on visiting one this year. Our son is obsessed with Santa right now and I’m pretty sure he’ll think the farm is magic. Here’s a round up of the Christmas tree farms around our wonderful city.

Do you plan on cutting your own tree this year?
We have cut down our own tree for the past seven years and have carried this tradition on with our kids. We really loved Baker’s Creek Tree Farm last year!
Any farms with furs to cut? I can only find them precut and they are the only tree I’ve ever had. I really want to do the tree farm thing for my kids though.
Let me check…I think some of them have Douglas Fir but can’t remember which ones!
Looks like Bluebird Christmas Tree farm has Fraser Fir but all the others just have pine or spruce. I would call them to double check to see if they have some available!
This is going to be our first year cutting our Christmas tree…we are so excited and happy to see so many options!
