There are acres of trees to choose from, with several different types of pines and firs. They allow you to come out late October or early November to tag your tree when the weather is still nice. Then you can come back and pick it up closer to Christmas. When you come to pick up your tree, you take a mat and saw and head out to cut it down! What a fun family tradition! After you have brought it back for them to shake and bundle, there are candy canes on the Christmas tree inside for the kids. Super fun place, great memories, highly recommend!

Go in and take a peek, and maybe you too might find a last minute arrangement before summer turns to fall.

The time that I came I got a flight of their alcoholic ciders which were delicious (the blackberry was my fave) and we also got a quick hay ride around the place. They have a nice gift shop as well with a lot of yummy goods and some little souvenirs. I definitely would recommend and want to go back and bring my nieces and nephews to take part in some of the other activities. I think some of the other kid activities might cost money but for this trip the only things I paid for were the goods I received (drinks and gift shop products) which was awesome compared to other places I've been.

I found that staff were more than willing to help me and would actually walk me to an area that I had questions about rather than just give me general directions and send me on my way. I also struggle with reaching for some water bottle Items that are difficult to get on the top shelf and staff have always been willing to get them for me. The store was clean and well organized. It was a typical Target. I use them as one of my "go to" places when I have an extended stay while traveling. Target has all kinds of products that are appropriate for young families. My particular area of interest is their paper products and groceries. It's where I go to get my bulk paper towels and my bulk Kleenex. This particular Target has a typical, well stocked grocery area they have all the items that you could ever need. They have increased there ethnic food choices dramatically.They have high quality in fresh food, frozen food, and dry goods. They have a great beverage selection, including water. Health drinks and wine and alcohol. There prices are reasonable and usually lower than other stores. . I find that I can usually get in-and-out in a very timely manner.
