Christmas Tree Farms in Vermont

Q: How many Christmas tree farms are there in Vermont?

38 are listed here, as of 2026-10-09, across 13 counties; 37 of them offer choose and cut. The list is compiled from public listings and Vermont growers association directories, so a farm that has no web presence may be missing.

Q: When do Christmas tree farms in Vermont open?

Most open the weekend after Thanksgiving, Friday through Sunday, and stay open until the middle of December or until the trees run out. Hours differ from farm to farm and change with the weather, so check the farm's page or call before you drive.

Q: What kinds of Christmas trees do Vermont farms grow?

The farms listed here name Balsam fir, Fraser fir, White pine and Canaan fir most often. Vermont farms run the length of the Green Mountains, with balsam and Fraser fir on hillsides and sugarhouses that sell maple syrup beside the trees on a cold weekend.

Q: Can I cut my own tree at a Vermont farm?

Yes. 37 of the listed Vermont farms are choose and cut, which means you walk the field and cut a standing tree yourself, usually with a saw the farm lends or rents. 11 also sell pre-cut trees. Call first in a wet or snowy week.

Q: Do I need a permit to cut a Christmas tree in Vermont?

At a farm, no: you pay for the tree. On public land, often yes, and the agency sets the rules. The MyWild permit guide for Vermont lists the units, the dates and the agency's own wording.

Q: Where can I find Vermont growers and their events?

The Vermont Christmas Tree Association (vermontchristmastrees.org) is the state's growers association, and its site is the place to look for member farms and the state's season.

Q: How do I keep my tree fresh at home?

Make a fresh cut of about a half inch off the base before it goes in the stand, keep the stand full of plain water (about a quart a day for each inch of trunk diameter), and keep the tree away from heat vents, fireplaces and direct sun.
