Tips:
- If the name of the farm is blue with an underline; that's a link to their website or Facebook page. Click on it for the most current hours and information.
- ALWAYS email or call the farm or store BEFORE YOU GO
- many farms have closed in the past year, and of course, we won't know until the season starts and we find they aren't open! Call to confirm their supply, their hours
and whether they have trees, are allowing choose-and-cut or just precut trees; and which attractions or winter activities are available.
All three can change during the short Christmas season, due to weather, demand and the farmer's business conditions! Farms get sold, shut down or run out of trees, and they don't all update me every day, let alone every year. For
more tips to make your trip fun and successful, click here

DON'T DRIVE OUT THERE IF YOU CAN'T REACH THEM (by phone, email or find current information on their website or Facebook page!
- And please tell the farmer you visit in Huntsville and Northern Alabama that you found their farm
here! I need the farmers to realize that you found them here so that they will keep their information up to date!

Comments from a visitor on January 24, 2008: "Great selection of trees, always great
quality and great service (same guy sells them every year). He raises and
cuts the trees himself on his tree farm. They take cash and checks - not
sure about credit cards. It's a small gated plot just north of Greenlawn
Plantation in Meridianville (big sign out front "Smith Tree and Wreath").
They're open during 4th of July too, as a fireworks stand. No bathrooms -
it's a small lot with a shed with an enclosed fence which usually has a calf
and a small sheep in it. Some years they also sell small potted trees
(Colorado blue spruce) for planting."
