The farm visit.
The Turtle Creek Road visit
The industry directions place the farm about a quarter-mile south of Route 542, near mile 17 and west of New Gretna. This is the Burlington County Wading River destination, despite some postal descriptions using Egg Harbor City.
The association lists weekends, 10am–4pm, during a November 29–December 20 calendar with no printed year. Confirm the present selling window and remaining trees. Numerical prices, a height range and handling-service inclusions are not established.
