Hansen Family Tree Farm
Cut-your-own Christmas trees · Woodstock Valley, Connecticut · Windham County
A weekend-only choose-and-cut farm in Woodstock Valley in Connecticut's quiet corner, growing balsam and concolor fir alongside white and blue spruce, with small kid-size trees for families.
Saws are provided, or ask for full service and the crew will cut and wrap the tree you pick. Trees can't be tagged ahead. Families buying a full-size tree can add a small tree for the kids at a reduced price, a tradition the farm has run for more than a decade.
Payment is cash or check only, and there is a portable toilet. Follow the signs from Route 198, since sales may run from a second field nearby.
