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 Blair, Centre, Huntingdon, Juanita, and Mifflin Counties, Central-South Pennsylvania 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 November 30, 2013: "We have been to JB
Xmas tree farm to cut our own tree for many years. They are
friendly, pleasant and helpful. However, this year we were very
disappointed and not impressed at all! The trees were of poor
quality and despite walking the fields for over an hour, we couldn't
find one! It seems as though they are not planting enough to counter
the amount cut down each year. Very sad. It's been our family
tradition to cut our own tree down but instead, ended up buying a
pre-cut one from a grocery store. If you like White Pine, go for it,
but if you want something better, well ..."
