The Experience

There’s nothing like the crisp winter air on your cheeks as you set out to find the perfect tree! Families look forward to that magical moment every year — when you spot the one and know it’s yours. We provide the saw for you to cut down your own tree and the tractor/trailer to bring you and your tree back to the lodge to sip hot coffee or cider, snack on pretzels, and enjoy holiday treats.

While you’re here, explore the beautiful scenery, shop for holiday crafts, wreaths, swags, and garland, and take plenty of fun photo ops. Kids (and kids at heart!) can meet Santa, write letters to him, and cozy up by the fire with holiday books and puzzles.

What to Bring

A festive spirit, your family, a picture taking apparatus, a joyful heart, clothing to match the weather and a truck to haul or car to tie your perfect tree to. We’ll provide the trees, saws, twine, fun and Christmas Spirit.

 

Follow us on Facebook to see what it takes to grow the perfect tree throughout the year. We dedicate hours and hours in planting, grooming and caring for each tree so YOU have the best experience possible. Thanks for being a part of the Riverview Tree Farm family!

Before You Get Here

Tip 1: Dress appropriately for the weather. We are an active farm so plan for mud, uneven ground and cool temperatures.
Tip 2: Don’t be like Clark Griswold. Measure your space BEFORE cutting down a tree.
Tip 3: Get to the farm early for the best selection!
