Seven Louisiana Christmas Tree Farms You Can Visit This Year

Do you have dreams of heading out into the woods and cutting down your own Christmas tree? Well if they aren’t your woods, don’t do that. Instead, head to one of the many Christmas tree farms in our area and cut your own. Or, if you like the idea, but don’t have the brawn for that, still go to the farm and let one of their helpful employees cut down a tree you choose yourself. We’ve got a list here of all the places in our area that grow their own Christmas trees.

A few things to keep in mind: the farms will not be open when it rains, so check the weather! Check their facebook pages or website to make sure they’re open (places will sell out). Also, check online if they take credit cards because many of these small businesses do not. Happy hunting!
