Christmas Tree Farms in Central Georgia

Debra Paulsen
Christmas Tree Farms in Central Georgia - With Christmas Just around the corner, well okay, maybe not the next corner, but certainly around the block , is anyone else thinking about Christmas trees? As new empty nesters, In rural Hogansville, Georgia , my husband and I will be making the traditional Pick a tree trip solo this year for the first time. In the past when the children were younger we would try to find Christmas tree farms that were an adventure. This year I think we may look for a quiet simple tree farm. These three top choices I have personally called and confirmed but I always highly recommend to everyone call before setting out . Many of our tree farms are small family operations , and the sadness of a sickness in the family or even the joy of a new birth have been known to halt operations temporarily.

After calling to confirm with The owners, Russ and Donna Jordan, I am happy to make "Wee Three Trees" My first choice for families with young children. Aside from a wonderful selection of Leylands, white and Virginia pines that are priced at $5.00 a foot there are also individually priced Fraser firs available to choose from. Pre cut or cut your own.

On Saturdays and Sundays, while you're looking for the perfect tree, enjoy a family hay ride together, and sip some free cider . Can you say photo opportunity? There are Pony rides too for the kids!

They also do hayrides for the family here .
