With a selection of strong, thick lumber, these trees clearly aim to please. No limp branches around here folks. Not to mention the several fine young gentlemen able and ready to shave, drill, and wrap to your preference. I just couldn't wait to get mine home and throw some holiday balls on it!! There's nothing more American than buying local, so you're sure to leave thoroughly satisfied with your purchase. Hats off to the Halabura's for decking my halls to the fullest this year.

There have different fields for different types of trees. The family that runs it were friendly and helpful, told us where we needed to go for the Fraser Firs (my tree of choice), gave us a cart to haul the tree and a saw to cut it down. We had a nice walk through all of the different trees and finally found our Christmas tree. Cut it down, walked it back, and the staff got it ready for us. We also walked through their little gift shop which had plenty of cute little decorative items, and a lot cheaper than we expected. All in a all a great experience!

Last year my entire family came down with Covid at Thanksgiving. I nearly succumbed to it. After a…read morelengthy illness, we went looking for a Christmas tree shortly before Christmas. We had little if anything to spend on a tree. The folks at Lenharts were kind enough to give us a tree they still had on their lot at an incredible price. As a result we returned this year for our 2022 Christmas tree. We couldn't be happier. We found a gorgeous 10 ft Concolor Fir. It was freshly cut. The crew did a great job ensuring a straight drill job. They went to great lengths to make sure the drill hole was straight and done right. They baled our tree for us. They even loaded it in my pickup. The fields are full of trees. The variety and selection is extensive. Prices are still very compatible. The farm is not hard to find when following a GPS. Parking is along the road for the most part, but the road is pretty quiet and locals understand the dynamic and seem to be courteous. This is a multi generational, family run farm. You will not get an air of commercialism here. Here you are a friend, a neighbor and a valued customer. This tree farm gets a five star rating from me. Sadly I left my phone in the truck, otherwise I would have clicked a few pics. Once we have the tree up, I'll edit with a picture of our family's 22nd Christmas tree.

This year we had the dog in the truck and the girl working insisted on let him roam around. 5 mins later the wife the girl and the dog were playing ball in the field while I'm helping 2 other guys trying to load this tree (with roots) into my suburban. It must of weighted 400 pounds. After 10 mins of struggling we finally got it in. The guys asked how I was going to unload it and even offered to keep it on there dolly. They said I could bring the dolly back after I was done.. I myself like fake no work no back injury trees, but it puts my mom in the Christmas spirit so we will be back next year.(with the dog).

We stopped in early April (which is still pretty early), and they already had a ton to choose from. I was on a mission for mint because apparently I need every variation that exists and they had several kinds in stock. The one I was looking for specifically wasn't in yet, but they were super helpful and said it should be coming in later. Even this early in the season, the selection was solid: flowers, herbs, succulents, pre-made planters, and even little terrarium setups. And if you've been here before, you already know... it only gets better as the season ramps up. Peak planting season here is next level. One of my favorite parts is walking in and seeing their little water garden setup it's such a calming, "okay I'm about to spend money" moment. The whole place just feels like a reset. Prices are about average not cheap, but you're also not getting junk. Everything looks healthy, well cared for, and worth it. Overall: 5/5. If you garden, even a little, this place will get you.

On tree day, a large group of friends gather at our house for breakfast before convoying to Schuylkill County in search of the perfect fresh Fraser Fir. From there to Stoudt's for lunch; it has been our lasting tradition. http://www.stoudtsbeer.com/ When you arrive, you're immediately greeted by very kind folks, a cozy, blazing fire in the fireplace at the lovely antique barn, free hot chocolate and cookies. The wait is never long for the tractor to pick you up for your hayride over the hill to the tree farm where you can cut down your own tree or select one to be cut for you. I've always wanted to be one of those people who chooses their Christmas tree months in advance and tends to it over the months before harvesting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuDoCRsqdAg&feature=autoplay&list=ULne7o-6Of3gs&lf=mfu_in_order&playnext=4 The farm is dog-friendly and the owner is always happy to see that Mary is still able to make the trip. He walks towards her with a delightful smile as he calls to let her know he hasn't forgotten her name. The prices are good (don't forget to tip the workers who are bailing and loading your tree) and $2.00 of every purchase is donated to the local SPCA. That should tell you a little about the likableness of the people managing this family farm which has been around since 1939. Fraser Fir, Concolor Fir, Douglas Fir, Canaan Fir, Turkish Fir and up to 12' tall. My only wish is for the option to one day purchase an organic tree here.
