Come
on out for our
Santa Hayride!
By popular demand! The horses will be returning this weekend, December
19th and 20th, for a finale hayride.
Bring the family and visit us between Thanksgiving weekend and December
20 for a hayride
to our tree fields. Saturday and Sunday through Dec 13, we'll have horses
pulling the wagons! (Horses will be pulling on Friday 11/27, too.) Hop off and roam the fields.
Enjoy a snow adventure, play hide-and-seek, visit our pet birds, and
simply enjoy the farm's holiday atmosphere. Stop at one of our campfires for a photo op or just to warm
up!

Visit With Santa and his Reindeer
Not only do children (and their adults) get to visit with Santa, but they get to see his
reindeer, too. Each year, Santa sends a pair of reindeer here just to
enjoy your company. We'll have apple slices on hand - everyone gets a chance
to feed them! Don't forget your camera: you can have a great photo with
Santa.
Santa will also have surprise story-reading with the children each
weekend.
Now you can Email Santa! Send him your wish
list, or ask if he has a chance to visit your home or party.
Admission
$5 each includes all of the activities above, and more - like our new
s'mores station.
Whatever your favorite - visiting Santa, riding the hayride, tromping in
the woods, hanging by the fire, watching wreath decorating - you're sure to
have a great time when you visit Trim Pines Farm!
Watch here for announcements of special activities, like an antique
tractor display from the Genesee County Two-Cylinder Club.
Choose & Cut and precut Christmas Trees
We offer you a terrific array of fresh Christmas Trees - from fat
& wide, to tall & slender and everything in between. Dense branching
can hold lots of lights, and open trees may have a Victorian feel. You'll
even find the perfect trees to hold large decorations like
teddy bears. From friendly to stately to truly funky, you can discover your favorite tree personality!
We've phased out our local Scotch Pine production, so this year's selection will be in
pre-cut only. All other species will be available in you-cut, and most in
pre-cut as well. Our pre-cut trees can be a real convenience - we cut them weekly, so you know they're fresh! 
Prices
are clearly marked on your tree and start around $35. We'll shake, wrap and drill
your tree at no additional charge, too. Ask us about trees up to
20' tall -
we have dozens available each year! We may have some small, table-top
trees as well. Just ask your greeters.

Balled (live) Christmas Trees
Balled trees are available for planting after Christmas. They'll be ready
around December 10, and can even be loaded into your truck or trailer during the
week. Live Christmas trees can remain indoors up to 7
days, and should be planted soon after returning outdoors.

New this year: great little table-top trees!
At 30 inches or under, they're great for smaller homes, kids' rooms, porch
decorating and lots of other uses. Get yours with or without decorations!

Tree hunting Tips
Follow these tips for a successful tree hunt:
1. Know the height & width of your room before you come to choose your tree. Select
a tree that's the appropriate size, or have our tree handlers cut your tree
to the right height for you. Remember to leave space for the stand and your
tree topper!
2. Wear the right clothing for the day - as with any outdoor winter
activity, most of us are happiest with our boots, hat &
gloves! Bring a camera, too. We'll be happy to snap a picture for you, or
you can trade turns on the shutter with other tree hunters.
3. Let your pets stay home, as they're not allowed on the farm with the
horses & tractors.
4. Use our saws - we maintain them every year so you don't
have to bring your own. Axes and power saws aren't allowed on the farm for
safety's sake.
