Tag for staff-cut collection
Advertised tagging sessions are November 7–8, 14–15 and 21–22, 11am–3pm. Staff cut and bale for the agreed pickup; call first because the tree guide still says no pretagging.
Choose and cut
The farm describes field cutting from the weekend after Thanksgiving. Confirm the field’s actual days, hours and remaining trees.
Shop precuts at the market
Precuts are advertised daily. Glastonbury delivery is also offered; agree the tree price, delivery charge and booking directly.
Belltown’s homepage advertises tree tagging on November 7–8, 14–15 and 21–22, 11am–3pm. Staff cut and bale tagged trees for an arranged pickup; customers with tagged trees do not cut them themselves. Confirm the tagging arrangement before making an advance visit.
Choose-and-cut is described as beginning the weekend after Thanksgiving, while precuts are sold daily. The farm also advertises precut delivery within Glastonbury, with the price and booking arrangements unstated. Check the available varieties and sizes and the price of your chosen tree.
Tagging and tree pickup
Call before coming to tag a tree: the homepage advertises November 7–8, 14–15 and 21–22 tagging sessions, while the Christmas-tree guide still says no pretagging. Confirm which arrangement applies to your visit and agree the pickup date before reserving a tree.
For the advertised tagging option, staff cut and bale the tree for your selected pickup date; customers do not self-cut pretagged trees. Tagging sessions, later collection, choose-and-cut field access and market shopping have separate hours.
Payment and pets
The orchard accepts cash, credit, debit and Apple Pay; checks are not accepted. Dogs are not permitted anywhere on the property. South Glastonbury is the postal locality for this Glastonbury farm. Fruit-season admission rules do not establish charges for a Christmas-tree visit.
Market, bakery and gifts
The market and bakery offer cider donuts, pies, cookies and pastries, alongside seasonal produce, dairy staples and frozen farm fruit. Grandma’s Pantry carries jams, jellies, baking mixes, fruit butters, dressings and the orchard’s honey. Local gifts, handmade cards and custom fruit or gift baskets give you another reason to stop after choosing a tree.
The homepage lists general market hours Monday–Friday 9am–5pm and weekends 8am–5pm, while the contact page closes at 6pm. Confirm a late market visit, and arrange tree-field hours, tagging and pickup separately.
