Allen Hill Farm
Cut-your-own Christmas trees · Brooklyn, Connecticut · Windham County
A historic Brooklyn farm owned by the same family since 1891, with about 100 acres of hand-sheared Christmas trees and hayrides out to the fields to cut your own.
Ride a hay wagon out to the rows to find and cut your tree, or choose one that is already cut if you are short on time. Hot mulled cider is served, and the farm's 350 acres offer wide views over the quiet corner of Connecticut.
Payment is by cash or check, so plan ahead. Weekday hours start at noon, while weekends open early in the morning.
