The farm grows Virginia pine and says a tree takes a minimum of five years to reach approximately 6 to 8 feet. The farm offers Fraser fir to select customers. On the week of Thanksgiving the farm receives pre-cut Fraser fir trees from a small family farm in North Carolina, which also supplies fresh wreaths and garland. A properly cared-for Virginia pine or Fraser fir lasts four to six weeks in the farm’s words, with the stand kept watered.
The farm publishes no Virginia pine size range or price chart. Prices average $8 to $12 a foot, and each tree is priced individually. Fraser fir is sold pre-cut, by size, for pickup or delivery.
