Cutting our own Christmas tree is a beloved family tradition in my family. We’ve done it on and off for years and are delighted that there are so many options available for u-cut trees in the area. Christmas tree farming is a renewable resource: young growing trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air and produce oxygen, trees are composted at the end of their season providing mulch for soil in local municipalities, and many of the farms that produce them also grow our food and provide local jobs. You can also get a live, dug tree and then plant it in your backyard at the end of the holiday season.
Here is a list of places you can get your hands on a freshly cut Christmas tree! Most places provide saws, have hot chocolate available for free or at a concession, some have bonfires, some have farm animals, some are small farms, some are larger businesses, but all the ones I spoke to were very enthusiastic about their trees. So let your inner lumberjack out and get your own fresh Christmas tree!
