Why Choose to Pick Your Christmas Tree?
Picking your Christmas tree is more than just a tradition; it's an opportunity to create lasting memories with your loved ones. Here are some compelling reasons to consider:
- Connection with Nature: Walking through our beautiful campos of trees allows you to connect with nature. The fresh air and scenic surroundings provide a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
- Quality and Freshness: Trees selected from the farm are significantly fresher than those pre-cut and displayed in lots. These trees have been nourished throughout their growth, ensuring longevity and a lush appearance once decorated.

The Types of Christmas Trees Available at Hurley's Farm
At Hurley's Farm, we offer a diverse range of Christmas trees that cater to various preferences and tastes. Here are some popular types you can expect to find:
1. Nordmann Fir
This tree is known for its stunning appearance and stunning needle retention, making it a top choice for many families. The Nordmann Fir has a beautiful deep green color and soft needles, making it a pleasure to handle.
2. Norway Spruce
The traditional choice for many, the Norway Spruce features a classic shape with a lovely aromatic scent. While they may shed needles more readily than other types, their robust branches are perfect for hanging a variety of ornaments.
3. Blue Spruce
With its striking bluish hue, the Blue Spruce is a unique choice that stands out in any holiday decor. The needles of this tree are sharp, which can deter some animals from munching on them - a real plus for families with pets!

The Fraser Fir boasts a pleasant aroma, durable branches, and exceptional needle retention. This tree is perfect if you're looking for eye-catching aesthetics and a long-lasting centerpiece for your holiday festivities.
Tips for Picking Your Christmas Tree
When you arrive at Hurley's Farm, you'll want to be prepared to select the ideal tree. Here are some tips to make your experience as enjoyable as possible:
1. Measure Your Space
Before heading to the farm, measure the space where you plan to display your tree. Consider the ceiling height and the width of the area to ensure that your tree won’t be too big or too small.
2. Explore the Farm
Take your time exploring the farm. Each tree has its own unique charm. Walk around, enjoy the scenery, and don’t hesitate to pick more than one tree to check which one appeals to you the most.
3. Check the Branches
When selecting a tree, inspect the strength and spacing of its branches. Make sure the branches can support your ornaments and decorations. Energy-efficient LED lights are a fantastic choice for covering your tree beautifully.
4. Ask for Assistance
The friendly team at Hurley's Farm is here to help you. If you have any questions or need assistance in choosing a tree, don’t hesitate to reach out to our knowledgeable staff.
Caring for Your Christmas Tree
Once you've picked the perfect tree, it's crucial to maintain its freshness throughout the holiday season. Here are some essential tips:
- Cut the Trunk: As soon as you get your tree home, make a fresh cut on the bottom of the trunk. This helps the tree absorb water more effectively.
- Water Regularly: Keep the tree stand filled with water. A Christmas tree can drink a lot of water, especially in the first week of being cut.
- Avoid Heat Sources: Position your tree away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces. This helps reduce needle drop and keeps your tree looking fresh.
- Use LED Lights: If you’re decorating your tree with lights, opt for LED lights, as they produce less heat and are energy-efficient.
