O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree, what kind of Christmas tree is best for me?

For many of us, putting up and decorating a Christmas tree is a staple part of the holiday season. Gathering with the family, pulling out boxes of handmade ornaments, and finding the perfect branch to put each one on is a time-honored tradition. For the truly adventurous, choosing a tree begins with a trek into our tree field with a saw in hand and seemingly limitless choices around you. At Van Wilgen’s we carry several varieties of Christmas trees, each with its own unique features. To help make the choice a little easier, we’ve compiled a few quick facts about our favorite tree options.

The holiday season is upon us! We’re excited to kick off our favorite holiday traditions from baking cookies to decorating for the season. For many of us, nothing says the holidays more than the fragrant smell of a fresh-cut tree. Whether you’re a fan of pre-cut trees or you prefer to cut your own, we’re here to help!
You’ll find pre-cut trees within the black gates just off of the parking lot for easy access, and getting to our tree field is just a quick walk past our perennial department. From there, you can pick up one of our handy saws and start the hunt! With over 16 acres of trees to choose from, including a selection of Fraser Fir, Douglas Fir, Blue Spruce, and Turkish Fir, you’re sure to find the perfect tree.
As you’re searching, you’ll find our team circling the fields, always ready to help. Once you’ve chosen your tree, we’ll tag it and help you cut it down if you need a hand. We’ll transport your tree to our pickup area in the parking lot (no need to lug it around yourself). Simply pull up in one of the pickup lines and we’ll bale and tie your tree to your vehicle. Please note, in order to keep everyone safe, we kindly ask that you stay masked and remain in your vehicle unless otherwise instructed.
Whether you choose to cut your own or go with a pre-cut option, we’re certain the fresh smell of your tree will leave everyone with some good old-fashioned holiday spirit.
