Saum Family Farms
Cut-your-own Christmas trees · Lancaster, Ohio · Fairfield County
A three-generation family farm south of Lancaster selling cut-your-own Canaan fir, white pine and concolor, pre-cut Fraser fir and a wide range of handmade greenery.
Saum Family Farms prices its cut-your-own trees by the foot, with pre-cut Fraser firs on hand for anyone who would rather skip the saw. Trees are shaken and baled, and payment for trees and greenery is taken at the outside windows, cash or check only.
