East Bay & Castro Valley Christmas tree farm questions

When do Christmas tree farms in the East Bay open in 2026?

Alhambra Valley Christmas Tree Farm in Martinez and Castro Valley Christmas Tree Farm in Castro Valley open first, on Sunday 22 November 2026.

How much does a Christmas tree cost at a farm in the East Bay?

Only one farm here publishes a price: Castro Valley Christmas Tree Farm in Castro Valley, $124.95–$134.95. The other farms don't publish a price, so ask when you call.

How these were checked

Every farm here was read on its own website or Facebook page, and each card quotes the farm’s words and carries the date it was checked; cards updated from a farm’s own email say so. Where a farm states its opening as a rule — “the day after Thanksgiving” — or prints a day with no year, the card gives the 2026 date that rule makes and says so.

East Bay here means Castro Valley in Alameda County and the Alhambra Valley near Martinez. Directories and news roundups were used only to find farms, never for a date or a price.
