Came for our first tree cutting experience. The taller trees in the lots were already picked through but we found a beautiful tree already cut so we didn’t leave disappointed. Everyone working there was very helpful and friendly. We will be back next year!

I came here yesterday with my dog, the employees were very welcoming to us! We just went to check out the pumpkins and enjoy the fall day. I was tempted by the donuts and cider… They were both AMAZING. Cute little spot to check out if you’re in the area.

I’ve been getting a CSA farm share from Pakeen Farm for a number of years, and recommend it highly. It is a small, local farm. For $ 20/wk(single share) or $ 30/wk(family share), I can get my share of farm fresh veggies from the harvest each week. The reminder email comes each week, often with a recipe for those items which I am wondering what I can possibly make(garlic scape pesto). The owners/family are wonderful, and I’m proud to eat local delicious veggies. Good for earth, good for the economy, good for me.

Great place to get a Christmas tree! They have cut your own trees or pre cut ones. Prices are good, better than many parking lot tree places! They have wreathes and Christmas arches. Very nice place.’

Want to support a local farm when it comes to getting your Christmas tree and not a big box store? This is your place. We’ve been going here for a few years because my boyfriend is a Canton firefighter and wants to support a local business in his work area. For trees you have two options: cut down your own(you can walk up the hill and select your tree and they’ll chop it down for you). Super local! OR you can buy one of the pre-cut trees ready to go in the parking lot. The quality is much better and you get a better variety. The only catch is that most of these trees aren’t local, they too are shipped in from another state, so not much different than a tree you would get from a big box store, but at least the $ is going to the local farm and not a chain, and it supports them during the winter months when their income is very limited. When you check out you can also have the option to purchase wreaths, smaller trees, pine decorations, and hot chocolate/hot cider and cookies. I appreciate them having the hot cider(now if only they would offer a vegan cookie!). During the summer they offer a CSA, so if you are in Canton consider purchasing a share and getting your veggies from them. There aren’t many local farms around anymore, so it’s always great to go out of your way to keep them alive, and the green space from being developed for condos.

I went to Pakeen Farms yesterday for the first time for my Christmas tree. I I was really impressed with the the overall look of the farm and the way it was organized. They have already cut trees to choose from as well as several fields of trees that you can choose and cut down. When you get there, if you want to choose your tree to cut, you are given a tag to put on the tree you ultimately select. At that point, you can look for an employee(they were all over the place) to either have them cut the tree for you or to supply you the saw to do it yourself. They had MANY trees to choose from and to be honest, there were quite a few that were«perfect» in terms of shape and fullness. I was really impressed and it was not easy to make the final choice! I was impressed with the variety of tress both short and long needle as well as several types of spruce and fir. The price for the tree was 75.00 plus tax, and seemed consistent with other tree farms I investigated. They had hot chocolate and cookies in the main barn which was quite nice. They also had wreathes and garlands for sale as well. The staff were really helpful and they bind the trees and strap them to your car as well. All in all, a great experience — I will be back next year!
