Texas-grown trees in the field
Haynie's Green Acres grows Texas Blue Ice and Carolina Sapphire Christmas trees, and the family trims them twice a year so they are ready for the season. A tractor takes visitors out to the Christmas tree field and back on weekends, and the farm has free saws for cutting field trees all season. Ask the farm about field tree sizes and prices and about how cutting works in the field.
Before the tree goes on your car, the farm's tree shaker, named Elvis, gives it a good shake to send the loose needles flying. The farm provides tree netting, baled for easier transport, and twine for tying the tree down to your vehicle, all free of charge.
