Choose and Cut Christmas Trees at Abel's Trees


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 12/20/2020
We plan to open on Black Friday and stay open until December 20. Unlike any year in the past, we plan to be open all days of the week except Wednesday, in order to spread your visits through the week and decrease the congestion on weekends. Scheduled appointments are impossible for weekends but would be appreciated during weekdays in order to help us plan for staffing. To make an appointment send me an email with the date and time you plan to visit. All trees will be priced at $65 this year. Please understand that we have not increased our prices in 5 years. We regret that due to social distancing concerns, we are not planning to use the wagons. However, we have purchased more “tree carts” to help bring trees back from the fields. Contrary to what we had previously contemplated, we now have plans to safely offer our free hot chocolate. If you have a hand saw that you could bring this year, it may help reduce wait times for saws as we will be disinfecting them after each use.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
  • Complimentary baling is offered to facilitate handling of your tree and we are happy to help tie your tree to your car should you like assistance.
  • Loaner saws are available should you need one. We require a $10 deposit on the saw (which you get back once you return the saw).
  • We accept cash or personal check.
  • Many customer have also asked about dogs / pets. We welcome dogs, but we ask that they remain leashed.

Additionally, we would appreciate that
everyone follow our COVID-19 related rules:
1). Masks will be required to enter the buildings and any time that social distancing of 6 feet or more cannot be maintained.
2). We will request that only one family member enter the sales barn at a time.
3). We will ask that people in lines for tree sales, food, or saws stay at least 6 feet apart.
4). There will be no inside seating or tables.
5). Hand sanitizer will be available in multiple locations.

Erin will be baking her special treats as usual for the weekends.  However, we will be unable to provide a full selection of treats on weekdays.  Special orders may be arranged in advance by calling us or by writing to Erin directly at Abelstreats@gmail.com.

This year has been a tough one for the trees.  In April, there was a late frost and we had 2 extended drought periods during the summer.  Most trees were unaffected, but you will see some trees with less growth or with interior needle loss. Overall, we still have thousands of very nice trees, but if you are looking for a Charlie Brown Christmas tree, you may see a few more than usual.

We look forward to seeing you soon and please remember to bring your masks for when you need to enter the buildings.
