Cut your own
  • Borrow a saw and choose your tree with plenty of daylight left. The farm has no artificial field lighting, so make room for the search before the 3pm closing time. Wear warm clothes and sturdy shoes for the visit.
Cut your own
  • Park in the first lot on the right and check in at the fence just beyond the winery. Keep the lower part of your chosen tree’s tag and leave the matching part on the branch. A worker can help with cutting; for a pre-cut tree, ask the crew to take it off the stake.
  • After payment, bring the car and paid ticket to the loading area. Ask for a fresh stump cut or branch removal there. Staff can help tie the tree to the roof, or you can secure it yourself. Bring your own rope if you have it; the farm can provide some when needed.
Shaking, baling & loadingThe crew ties the tree to your car without charge. Bring a blanket to protect the roof before loading, and plan the vehicle and carrying arrangements for a particularly large tree.The team provides string, nets the tree and ties it to the car. Bring cash or a local check and proper ID; cards, Venmo and other electronic payments are not accepted. An ATM on Broadway in Greenlawn is a few blocks away.
  • Keep the netting on while carrying the tree through doorways and placing it in the stand. If the tree waits outside before decorating, put it in a bucket of water and make a fresh trunk cut before bringing it indoors.
Get a field tree onto the tractor wagon before walking back to the shops. The wagon carries trees, rather than visitors. In the pre-cut area, make sure a worker has taken the tree to the preparation area before you leave it. Pay for the tree in the Farm Market while the crew shakes and nets it.
  • After payment, bring the car and paid ticket to the loading area. Ask for a fresh stump cut or branch removal there. Staff can help tie the tree to the roof, or you can secure it yourself. Bring your own rope if you have it; the farm can provide some when needed.
