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 Western North Carolina 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!

November 18 - 19, November 25 - 26, December 2 - 3 from 9 am till 3 pm. Directions: From Boone - North on 194 off 421; go 12 miles
to farm. Don't turn off 194 until you get to the farm. There is
nothing like visiting a Choose and Cut Christmas Tree Farm and
picking and cutting your own live Christmas tree. You know it's
what you want, and you know it's fresh. Your biggest decision is
choosing your "perfect tree" from among the thousands. At RRR
Tree Farm - Laurel Knob we've seen families jump off the Choose
and Cut Hay Ride , point at a tree and say "I want that one."
Most commonly, however, they'll spend hours choosing. However,
it's not unusual for them to come back to that very first one.
It's just fun to meander among the trees on the great search.
Once the decision is made and the tree is marked with the tag we
provide, we encourage you to cut it down with a hand saw (bring
your own or we'll provide one). We have staff in the field to
cut it for you if you prefer. The tree is then carried to the
bailer and bailed for you to take home. We will load the tree on
a trailer and take it to your vehicle. Y'all then get back on
the hay ride to go back to the Christmas Shop to get some more
hot cider.
