We can hardly believe that it is that time of year again. The snow is starting to fall, people are merrier and the smell of pine, baked goodies and hot chocolate fill the air. As your family prepares to decorate for the coming holiday, here are a couple of our favorite Tree Farms to visit with your family in the metro area.
Krueger’s Christmas Tree Farm is located in Lake Elmo, Minnesota and it offers an assortment of fun activities. In addition to offering a multitude of tree varieties – both pre-cut and cut-your-own – you and your children can meet with Santa Clause or even hop on one of the wagon rides. Krueger’s Christmas Trees won first place at the State Fair this last year, so don’t miss your chance to snag a beautiful tree for your beautiful home.
Goldenman Christmas Trees, located in Zimmerman, Minnesota, allows visitors to cut their own trees from the vast selection of tree. The charming gift shop features great holiday gift ideas, sweet ornaments and Christmas accessories for your home which are from local associations and businesses. You can also stop in the gift shop to pick up free cider and hot cocoa after you hop off the horse-drawn hayrides and feed the goats outside.
Z’s Trees is a great location to pick out your tree if you are in the southwestern metro. Located in Cologne, Minnesota, Z’s offers a great selection of trees. You can even join the hay rides out to choose the tree you want and have it transported back to the gift shop for shaking and bagging. Santa and Mrs. Clause often visit on the weekends to bake cookies and meet with the kids.
These are three of our favorite tree farms around the metro. We hope that you find the perfect tree for your home and enjoy the beauty of this season. As the year draws to a close, we wish your home would be filled with joy and the company of your family and friends this holiday season.
