Shop Local – Evergreen Valley Christmas Tree Farm

This is one of my favorite times of year. Today we had our first few flurries, and yesterday Matt and I cut down our very first Christmas tree as a family! We chose a farm a little over an hour from where we live called the Evergreen Valley Christmas Tree Farm, in Washington New Jersey.

A great way to start a fun family tradition and support local farmers is to cut down your own tree. Places like Evergreen are family run and highly sustainable. This past spring alone they planted over 6,000 seedlings!

Check out this link about Real Christmas Tree Myths. If you’re unsure about the sustainability of this tradition check out this link from the National Christmas Tree Association.

    Thank you so much for mentioning the farm! This is my brother-in-law and sister’s farm and we are very proud of all the hard work we have put into the farm over the 9 years it took to get to this point. We are glad you had a wonderful experience and look forward to seeing you in the future!
