I took my tree down last night that we cut down 5 weeks ago at Unangst Tree farm and it was as…read moregreen and fresh as it was when we put it up. Our tree was beautiful and full with sturdy branches. The team at the farm was very friendly and engaging and the price was reasonable. This will be our new place!

For whatever reason this year we decided to get a real tree for the first time and keep good ol'…read morefake-o in the basement for another year. I have driven by this place a ton of times and I knew of them from the local area farm tours, etc. but we had never thought of getting a live tree or stopping here until well...yesterday. While I know that they do all kinds of activities in fall and into November/December, I'm only testifying about what they do regarding trees. Just to specify this even further, I'm not talking about showing up and buying a pre-cut tree, I mean the Full Monty of cutting your own. All pertinent info is in the below link: www.unangst-treefarm.com/christmas-2014-information Basically you show up and take one of the wagons and one of their saws out to the field and cut away. It does help to ask inside the gift shop/barn as to where you're allowed to currently cut but overall it's pretty straight forward. After you're done, you take it over to the guys in the pre-cut tree area and they will clean up the bottom, shake out any loose needles (or random small critters) and tie it up for you. They give you a tag that goes back to the barn for payment (cash or card - no Amex) and then you pick up your tree to go home with. Very, very easy. We showed up at 3:40pm and the were done and on the road by 4. I guess it could take longer if it's a weekend and/or there are tons of people there but for us it was very fast. All info for pricing is here: www.unangst-treefarm.com/types-of-christmas-trees Time will tell if we'll be coming back here in the future for another tree or if this was a one off but at the very least the process is easy and the experience was fun. While there are certainly other tree farms in the area, Unangst to me would be tough to beat in terms of customer service and overall experience. A+ (Note that plenty of other places will sell trees cheaper but in the current environment where demand for trees in a lot of cases is exceeding realistic supply, this place is still open and selling while others closed a week ago or more in some cases. It is what it is.)
