Choose your Christmas tree.
Sleighbell grows Fraser, Canaan and concolor fir and white pine for choose-and-cut visits, with no pretagging. The trees differ in needle texture and fragrance: concolor has a citrus scent, while the softer white pine suits lighter ornaments. Precut Fraser firs are listed in 6–8, 8–10 and 10–12-foot groups, individually priced by size.
Collect a handsaw and cart, choose your tree and bring it to the baler. Staff tag, shake and wrap it; take your portion of the tag into the Gift Barn for payment and return the stamped tag to collect the matching tree. Shaking and baling are included. Staff can help with cutting, carrying and tying on, but customers must check that their load is secure. Twine is available near the baler.

The farm visit.
The Gift Barn and greenery
The log-cabin Gift Barn sells ornaments, decorations and tree stands, with a miniature Santa Express train running through the barn. Candles, table runners, stockings, tree skirts, handcrafted gifts, seasonal figures and tree-removal bags are among the other shopping choices. Most wreaths are handmade on the farm, including mixed greens of Fraser fir, mountain laurel, cedar and juniper with winterberries and pinecones. Custom holiday bows are available, alongside kissing balls, swags, roping and cemetery baskets. The train is a display rather than a passenger ride.
Make time for the farm visit
Warm up at the firepit or take family photographs at the antique sleigh, cartoon cutouts, decorated arch or giant wreath. Food vendors sell refreshments on weekends and may accept cash only. Santa’s current announced visit is November 28, noon–4pm; check the farm for any change before planning your day around it.
Tools, payment and pets
Sleighbell accepts cash, checks and major credit cards. Friendly dogs must stay leashed; clean up after them using the available waste bags and bins. Leave chainsaws, reciprocating saws and axes at home. Professional photography sessions require an appointment outside ordinary business hours; visitor photographs are a separate activity.
