Best Christmas tree farms near Detroit
Before heading out, here are a few tips and pieces of useful info:
- Most tree farms have saws on hand, and they’ll trim and package your tree so it’s easy to take home. Consider bringing a few bungee cords if you’d like, but otherwise, you’re covered.
- Farms have different season start/end dates. Most open the weekend after Thanksgiving, but it’s always best to call ahead.
- Prices and tree types will vary depending on the farm.
- Some farms don’t accept credit or debit cards; not all have electricity. Be sure to bring cash or a checkbook, just in case. Call ahead if you have any questions.
- Many offer activities like bonfires, hayrides and food — usually on the weekends. Again, check ahead to be sure.
