Cackler Farms

The fiancé and I were looking for a fresh Christmas tree this year. We wanted to pick one out from a farm to chop down ourselves to fully indulge in the holiday festivities. We stumbled upon the Cackler Family Farm, and brought home a gorgeous Canaan Fir tree.
It’s a bit of a drive from Hilliard, but it was well-​worth the trip! There are signs along the road which assured us that we were heading in the right direction. Although the parking lot was packed, it did not seem crowded when we were walking around the farm. There’s plenty of space to wander around to search for the perfect tree!
A kind gentleman helped answer questions by the information sign. Be sure to head to the info area for a map of the general area. It will list the different tree species and where they are located. If you’re unsure about which type you like, there’s a row of examples around the front of the farm.
A sled and saw are provided. Many trees have a red tag to identify the species and price. However, you also have the option of picking an untagged tree. We were told that there are too many trees to tag at once. Just be sure not to cut a baby tree or step on them :)
Once you get a tree, bring it around to the front office area to have it prepped to bring home. They shake off excess pine bits. For $ 3, you can have the tree netted.
There is a small concession stand for snacks and drinks, along with a children’s play area with a cute donkey and lamb. Handmade holiday wreaths are featured in the main office area are for sale.
Cackler Family Farm has beautiful trees with endless options. With its location relatively close to Columbus, it was a fabulous experience and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect Christmas tree!
