Houde’s Christmas Tree Farm

When you pay $ 8.00 per foot, you should expect a premium Christmas tree. That is not even close to the case at Houde’s The trees were ill shaped, many not even close to what one would consider a Charlie Beown Christmas Tree. The customer service was a joke.
Before you go to find a fresh cut your own tree, do some thinking. At $ 8.00 a foot, and the average Christmas tree being 6 feet tall, you are going to spend $ 48.00. For that kind of money, how should your tree look?
I saw many people at the farm. Many looked happy. Truly, it is a lot of fun going out to pick your tree. I also saw many people, generous enough to offer their coupon to me, because, they too did not find a tree worth cutting down. They did not find a tree with using a coupon for. Many people, that hopefully will back me up on my scathing review.
I left HOUDE’S today without a tree. I drove 10 minutes down the road, spent less money, and found a great looking healthy tree, that looks great in my living room.
I’m not sure if I would suggest going to the big box store instead of HOUDE’S, but there are some worth while charities with road side tree stands that I would go to before going to HOUDE’S.

I came for a photo shoot with a local photographer (Taken by Tiffany) who did some holiday family photos in the tree farm. It’s an amazing place and if you want to cut your own tree I would check this place out.

Great place to cut your own tree. One of the few places that’s open late in the season to do that. They have a little store where they sell accessories for the tree and there usually giving away hot cider and tiny candy canes. We come from Boston to cut our trees here.

First time here this year, and we bought a very nice looking pre-​cut tree. Price was reasonable, I think it was around $ 40. We walked around the plantation and couldn’t find the «right» one out there, but it was fun searching! The staff is very friendly and helpful, and they offer hot chocolate and candy canes. They also sell cord wood for a reasonable price, and have a coupon on their website, so go check them out!

this is where my wife and I will be buying all our Christmas trees from now on… glad we could help a local business and thank you for the A+ service

I think this is where I’m going for the Christmas tree, from now on.
There’s cut your own, and buy precut. I cut my own, with Jen helping me out. They hand you a saw, and a little sled, and send you out to explore the HUGE property for a good tree. It took me maybe 5 minutes to find a great one, cut it down, and haul it back (which sort of surprised the help, but I knew what I was looking for). There’s plenty of good trees to pick from. Since it’s on a sunny spot, you get really bushy growth on all sides of the tree, if you want it. They trim the trees up well, as they are growing, so they look pretty wonderful.
Then they measure you, and you go inside to pay. They do wrap the tree in webbing, if you want it. I’m going to skip that in the future, as it catches on everything. Prices were reasonable, and my tree is one bushy mammerjammer. I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience! It was a wee bit more expensive than buying the precut, but it should be a happy tree that doesn’t shed all it’s needles on me, which = awesome.
Thanks to Jen H. for tagging along, and being tall enough to get my tree on the Jeep roof rack. Big help.
