Choose your Christmas tree.
Houde’s current cutting selection is limited spruce and pine around 5 feet, with a few taller Scotch pines and Norway spruces. Balsam and Fraser are not available for customer cutting under the current announcement, even though older tree-description paragraphs list firs. Available choose-and-cut trees are $12 per foot.
Precut balsam firs are generally 6–9 feet and individually priced. Staff put on a fresh cut and wrap trees in netting. Saws and twine are available, or you may bring your own. A separate living-tree option can be requested before the ground freezes; arrange availability and planting preparations with the farm.

Hours and practical arrangements
Opening is November 21. The lot runs weekdays noon–7pm and weekends 9am–7pm; choose-and-cut closes at 4pm every day. Cash and checks are the only accepted payments. Wear suitable footwear for walking fields. Leashed dogs are welcome with cleanup.
Greenery choices
Plain and decorated wreaths are published in 12–36-inch sizes, with pine roping, branch bundles and kissing balls also offered. Ask about the desired size and decoration style rather than assume every size is ready to take home.
Walking the tree fields
The tree fields occupy part of a 37-acre property, with a view toward Mount Wachusett on a clear day. Wear footwear for walking through fields and ask about the route and assistance you need before visiting.
