2007 Season
Open Saturdays & Sundays after Thanksgiving
Hours: 9:30 a.m. til dark
Dates: November 24-25 thru December 22-23

The 2007 season opens Saturday, November 24 at Harrison Road Farm. We have over 4,000 Noble Fir, and it’s been a good year for tree growth. Many of our trees have reached heights of 9 to 10 feet.

Saws and tie-down twine provided, plus hot cocoa and candy canes for kids (of all ages).

This year we’ll open at 9:30 a.m. to take advantage of daylight hours. We hope this will allow families to get their tree, get it home and into the stand before lunch. Darkness seems to set in early, especially in December.

Most folks will have their holiday tree up and decorated long before the weekend of December 22-23, but some prefer the European tradition of putting up the tree on Christmas Eve. If you’d like to get your tree that weekend, we suggest you call or email to be sure someone’s available.

Noble Fir: Our Specialty

Noble Fir is an excellent choice for your Christmas tree. Its firm branches support ornaments beautifully, and with care a Noble Fir will maintain its freshness throughout the holiday season.

‘Natural Nobles’ or thick and full? All of the trees are hand-shaped each year during the 7 to 10 years it takes to produce a Noble Fir Christmas tree. Some trees are closely sheared for a full, dense appearance. Others have open branches for a natural look and more open space for hanging ornaments. The choice is yours.

Reminder: Christmas trees that look small in the field can double in size before you get them home. OK, just kidding, but do note things like ceiling height and the area where your tree will stand. A live Christmas tree, even in the 6- to 7-foot range, will be the focal point of the room.

Tree Care Tips:

Keep your tree watered. At home, make a fresh cut on the stump and put the tree in water. It will "drink" a surprising amount for the first 3 to 4 days. Check the tree stand daily; do not let it dry out. Check out more tree care tips here.

Real Christmas Trees: Oregon Takes the Lead

Yes, you can unfold an artificial, made-in-China Christmas tree, and maybe even spray on some evergreen fragrance … but it’s not the same as a real tree. Instead, you can enjoy a fresh, locally grown Christmas tree during the holiday season, knowing you’ve made an environmentally sound choice. Here’s why:

  • During my childhood—yes, that was back in the previous century—cattle grazed on the hillside that is now planted in Noble Fir at our farm. The field of nearly 5 acres supports a planting of around 5,000 Christmas trees. Each tree grows for 7 to 10 years, and when it’s cut, another seedling goes into that space. This dense planting has continued for 30 years, preventing soil erosion and filtering the air.
  • Viewed more closely, 1 acre of Christmas trees provides the daily oxygen requirements for 18 people, according the National Christmas Tree Association. Of course you enjoy the fresh air and outdoor experience when you visit the farm, but it’s nice to know you get the benefits all year long as the trees absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.
  • When you visit Harrison Road Farm to find that “perfect Christmas tree,” you’re doing more than building a meaningful family tradition: you’re supporting local growers of real trees.
  • It’s probably no surprise that Oregon leads the nation in Christmas tree production, with some 6 million sold each year. That’s about twice the volume of North Carolina and Michigan, ranked second and third by National Christmas Tree Association figures.
  • Christmas trees are grown in all 50 states, often on sites that won’t support other crops. Even in Kansas, our family made an annual trek to a Christmas tree farm when we lived there. Now it’s our turn to welcome families to our Oregon farm, where hot cocoa and candy canes are waiting when they bring in their fresh-cut Noble fir.

Recycle Your Christmas Tree

When the season ends, your Christmas tree can become wildlife habitat, trail chips or landscape mulch. Watch for Boy Scout or community tree recycling, or find local options at: Metro
