Four Winds Christmas Trees
Cut-your-own Christmas trees · Los Gatos, California
A Skyline Boulevard tree farm high in the Santa Cruz Mountains above Los Gatos where any tree you cut, up to about 16 feet and beyond, costs one flat, tax-included price.
The farm hands out saws and twine, and free self-serve netting makes the drive home easier. Douglas fir, white fir and grand fir are among the trees grown, in a wide range of sizes.
On weekends there are free candy canes, hot chocolate, apple cider and firewood while supplies last. Weekend late mornings and early afternoons are the busiest, so come early or on a weekday. Payment is by cash, check or payment app. Restrooms are not available late in the season, so plan ahead.
