The farm visit.
Choosing and bringing home a tree
The Walker Road retail area has field-cut and pre-cut choices, along with wreaths. Once a tree is chosen, staff can trim the base, drill it for a pin stand, bale it and assist with loading it onto the vehicle. Head to the choose-and-cut entrance at 9687 W Walker Road, beside the main farm at 9689.
Santa and Mrs. Claus
Santa and Mrs. Claus visit on selected days during the tree-selling season. Their visiting hours differ from the farm’s full selling day, so fit the tree hunt around the window that matters to your family.
