At Edwards, a tree’s height is measured to the first whorl of branches rather than the top tip. Borrow a saw and cart for the field trip, or ask the team for free cutting assistance. Free shaking and wrapping are also offered before the trip home.
Only hand saws are permitted: gas and battery-powered saws are both prohibited in the fields. The growers’ association names blue and Norway spruce, Scotch pine and concolor, Fraser and balsam fir; check the current field selection before traveling for a particular variety.

The farm visit.
Fresh wreaths, decorating greens and farm crafts
Fresh greens cut at the farm become wreaths, swags, roping and grave blankets, finished with country-style bows. Fir and spruce branch bundles are sold for home decorating and craft projects.
The gift shop also carries gourd and wood crafts. Gourds are grown, dried, cleaned, drilled, painted and sealed at the farm; browse the linked Edwards Farm Etsy shop for pieces available beyond Christmas. Specific farm items can be checked by email or arranged for pickup. Pickup outside the Christmas season can be arranged, and certain craft items can be shipped; ask which pieces are available and what collection or shipping will cost.

Approach on Jacobstown–Cookstown Road
The farm recommends Google Maps because Waze can mislocate it. From Route 537, turn onto Jacobstown–Cookstown Road (Route 665) and continue about one mile; the farm is on the right. The directions page prints a different final digit for an alternate mobile number, so use the main farm number or the shop page’s appointment contact.
