  • noble fir
    All-Around Favorite The Noble fir has sturdy fluffy- looking green-blue needles and sturdy limbs able to hold all sizes of ornaments. Noble firs are often trimmed or left more "natural." Natural Noble fir trees will have more "space" in-between the growth of the limbs - referred to by many as being "nordic" or "natural." Properly trimming this tree (cultured) brings the shape to the tree that is popular among many. Nobles are found growing naturally in higher elevations of Oregon's forests and are popular among tree farmers in Oregon - shipped world-wide because they are aromatic, beautiful, durable and, of course - beautiful.

  • less plastic more real
    More real everything... – – – Whenever we could, we've removed the plastic from your experiences here at the farm in exchange for fabrics, wood, glass and other natural materials to give your time with us a different feeling from pretty much everywhere else.
  • caring for your tree
    • DO water daily with clean fresh water – trees use an average of 1 qt. of water per inch of stem diameter. First week you'll see your tree drink quite a bit of water. Water temperature and additives have not proven any more effective in preserving your tree.

     

    • DO protect your tree from direct heat sources (fireplaces, heat vents, heaters, & direct sunlight)  these will cause them to lose moisture and drop their needles at a much higher rate.

     

    • DO trim off 1/4" the bottom  IF it has been more than 5-7 days since it was harvested. If you place your tree in water within 12 hours of cutting, you do not have to trim off the bottom.

     

    • DO place in water and keep in a cool place if you are storing your tree for a few days before use.

     

    • DO run your fingers across the needles to monitor if they are dry and brittle. If the needles break easily or fall off in your hand, the tree is dry and should be remove from the house.
  • step 1 – prepare
    "BEST PRACTICES" for tree hunting success We provide hand saws (although you can supply your own) - gas chain saws are prohibited due to insurance and safety. Battery powered equipment OK. Gloves are recommended. Something to kneel on the ground with to saw the tree (especially if its raining) Weather appropriate shoes and clothing for an outdoor Oregon experience that includes walking on rough farm ground, gravel road, wet brush, rain, mud, and other natural occurring foliage. Because of our elevation, it can be colder than the valley with a bit more wind. Please prepare accordingly for all members of your family. Tie downs/straps for securing your tree and appropriate protection for your vehicle. Ask Siri to find Christmas Trees West – 45619 NW David Hill Rd., Forest Grove, OR 97116

     

  • step 2 – the tree hunt
    SIZE AND TYPE OF TREE Identify your desired tree type by the needles and where to search to find it. Your tree is priced according to height and type of tree. Find out where to look for trees this year on the farm. It will vary year to year. Start your tree hunting – enjoy your Oregon outdoor tree hunt journey! * Although we have replanted 7 years in a row, current harsh dry growing conditions in Oregon continue for
 young seedlings has reduced the size and availability of trees.
  • step 3 – cut | shake | bale
    FOUND YOUR TREE? Measure the tree height and take note it's the type of tree you desire before cutting. Prices vary by tree type. Look at our price list before you head out. We measure after bailing. CUT Cut your tree as close to the ground as possible. Please do not high stump the tree. You can use a handsaw or battery powered equipment only (gas powered chainsaws are not allowed) CARRY You can carry the tree with the help of your friends or family members, or bring a tree cart with you to pull your tree back. If you need assistance, please let us know. STAY WITH YOUR TREE Please stay with your tree through the stages of getting your tree ready to go home. You will get a 2 part tag with matching numbers an outside elf will mark appropriately for you to bring inside to pay. It notes the size and type of tree that reflects the cost of your tree. SHAKING (complementary) Tree shaking reduces naturally occurring loose needles from it's life at the farm. BALING (complementary) The baling process is where it is measured and twine is wrapped around the tree to make it easier to bring home and into your home. YULE TIDE STANDS A quality stand brand available here. We will straight cut a "handle" on the bottom of your tree, drill a hole and put on your stand. PAYMENT Bring your tree tag provided by an outside tree elf inside to pay – we accept cash, check and all types of cards.

  • grand fir
    The Aromatic Favorite This tree has recently gained increased popularity due to it's intense aroma among our tree hunters. This tree species sports larger, longer and flatter needles than the other trees we have here. It has a noticeable two-tone coloring when you compare the top to the bottom of the needles. The tree has a shorter time from cut time to when it can loose it's needles. We recommend you choose this tree if you set up your tree 1 to 2 weeks before the big day.
