Find your perfect Christmas Tree at Hickory Creek Farm!

           How to care for your cut Christmas tree 

• Make sure it has a fresh cut right before its placed in the tree stand with water. We will provide a fresh cut before it leaves the farm. However, if it takes more than an hour to get it home and in the stand, we recommend another fresh cut.
• Use a stand that holds at least a gallon of water.
• Check water often and keep the stand full. Your tree can drink up to a gallon of water the first 24 hours.
• NEVER allow the water level to drop below the cut stump of the tree.
• We recommend using plain ole tap water. No additives are necessary. 
• Place the tree away from heat sources like vents, fireplaces, wood stoves, radiators and sunny windows.
• Check your lights and cords for broken bulbs and frayed wires
• Turn off the lights before leaving home or going to bed.
• With proper care, your tree can easily last six weeks or more safely.
• Please recycle the tree after Christmas!

---

Leyland Cypress

Our most popular variety grown here at the farm. 

• Beautiful deep green foliage.
• Long lasting when kept in water after cutting.
• Leylands can last up to two months with virtually no needle loss.
• They drink a lot of water, so pay attention to the bowl.
• Perfect for folks with allergies. Not aromatic.
• Heavy ornaments could be too much for its lighter branches.
• Limited supply for 2022. Get yours early this year. We will have plenty in 2023.
  

Green Giant Arborvitae

Another fan favorite due to its color and needle retention

• Excellent needle retention when kept in water.
• Lighter color needles than Leylands.
• Slightly aromatic. 
• Light to medium strength branches.
• Beautiful when decorated with lots of lights and ornaments.
• ​Moderate supply for 2022. 

Carolina Sapphire Cypress

Looking for something unique and different? The Carolina Sapphire could be your new tradition!

• Very nice citrus aroma that will make your whole house smell festive!
• It has the appearance of a cedar tree but soft to the touch.
• Sapphires generally have a smaller trunk with lots more foliage than many others, so maintaining its water is crucial to good needle retention.
• Give it a fresh cut immediately before putting it in water to maximize its life.
• We have a very good supply of these up to 11' for the 2022 season.

​

Pre-Cut Fraser Firs

The "Cadillac" of Christmas trees! By far, the most popular Christmas tree in the country!

• Grown right here in NC at our farm and others in Ashe County.
• Strong, short needled branches hold heavy ornaments.
• One of a kind fragrant Christmas smell.
• Excellent keep-ability and  needle retention after being cut.
• A fresh cut before placing in your stand with water will keep the tree fresh through the holidays.
• From tabletops sizes up to 13', we will have a vast selection to choose from in 2022.
