Know Before You Go
- Tickets: Cut-your-own Monterey pines are $85 each regardless of size. Pre-cut Noble, Douglas and Fraser firs are $45-$310 depending on species and size. Train rides cost $5-10 each, age 2 and up.
- Pets: No pets are allowed on the property; only trained service dogs are welcome.
Tips & Advice
- Go big with a cut-your-own Monterey pine, since every one costs the same no matter the size and there are more very tall ones than usual.
- Come on a Saturday or Sunday if you want the steam train, food vendors and Santa photos, because those only run on weekends.
- Bring some cash for lunch, since some of the food vendors only take cash, although you can get cash at the farm too.
- Leave the dog at home, because the farm's insurance only allows trained service dogs on the property, and that applies every season.
Special Events & Promotions
- New this year: Monterey pines you can cut yourself, all one price no matter the size, including many trees up to 12 feet tall.
- Steam train rides, food vendors and Santa photos on Saturdays and Sundays only; train rides need a separate ticket.
- Pajama Christmas evenings are a separate ticketed event that goes on rain or shine, and Santa photos are offered on those nights.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of trees can I get?
You can cut your own Monterey pine or pick a pre-cut Noble, Douglas or Fraser fir. The firs are shipped in from snow country because they won't grow in the local heat.
Do I need to bring my own saw?
No. The farm has saws, but you're welcome to bring your own.
Can they help get the tree ready to take home?
Yes. Full tree services are available, including shaking, drilling and flocking.
What's on besides tree sales?
On Saturdays and Sundays the steam train runs and food vendors are on site. Santa is also there for photos. Train rides are ticketed separately for ages 2 and up.
Should I bring cash?
It helps. Some food vendors take cash only, though you can also get cash at the farm.
