Carl & Dorothy Young's Christmas Tree Farm
Cut-your-own Christmas trees · Yellow Springs, Ohio · Greene County
A family tree farm just south of Young's Jersey Dairy in Yellow Springs, where every cut-your-own visit is booked ahead and the gift shop serves free hot chocolate and popcorn.
Reserve a time before you go. At the farm you get a saw and a sled for pulling your tree back to the barn, where it is shaken, wrapped and tied onto your car. The fields grow Canaan and concolor fir, Norway spruce and white pine, with trees tagged by price. Tall firs are best moved in a pickup.
The gift shop sells stands, decorations and hand-decorated wreaths while they last. Check the farm's dog policy page before bringing a pet.
