Elwood Christmas Tree Farm
Walk Elwood’s tree fields to choose a Christmas tree, bring a hand saw to cut it yourself, or let the farm cut the tree for you. Pre-cut trees offer another choice, and the crew ties the tree to your car at no charge.

Choose your Christmas tree.
Elwood grows Norway spruce, Douglas fir, Fraser fir, Blue spruce and Turkish fir, with different sizes around the 22-acre farm. It also offers particularly large Norway spruce and Douglas fir trees; arrange the details with the farm for those larger trees.

The farm visit.
Bring a hand saw or ask for cutting help
For cutting your own tree, bring your own hand saw. If you arrive without one, the crew will cut the selected tree for you. Axes and chainsaws are prohibited.
The crew ties the tree to your car without charge. Bring a blanket to protect the roof before loading, and plan the vehicle and carrying arrangements for a particularly large tree.
Finding the gate and parking

Cars can usually park inside the farm. At busy times, the farm says visitors may need to park along Jericho Turnpike and walk . Credit cards are not accepted, and photography requires a permit.
