Littleworth Tree Farm

Petersburg, NJ · Cape May County

Over six thousand trees in Cape May County, and a two-visit farm: you tag a Douglas fir, Colorado blue or Norway spruce or Canaan fir before or during Thanksgiving weekend, then come back a few weeks later and the farm cuts, bales and loads it onto your car. The field trees sell out quickly. Pre-cut Fraser, Nordmann, Douglas and noble fir arrive Thanksgiving weekend, with evening shopping under string lights from 3 December.

Worth knowingThree things are worth planning around. The opening weekend is tagging only and by reservation — the farm sells a limited number of field trees and takes bookings for them, so turning up on 21 November without one is not the trip you think it is. The pre-cuts arrive on Thanksgiving weekend and include Nordmann and noble fir, which almost nothing else we list anywhere sells. And the Thursday and Friday evenings from 3 December are new this season, 3pm to 7:30pm with the place lit by patio string lights — the only after-dark tree shopping on this page. The farm’s own notes on its four field species are useful too: blue spruce and Fraser for heavy or vintage ornaments, Norway spruce for the conical shape, Canaan fir if you want something close to a balsam.

Before you set offThe field trees sell out, and they sell out early. In the farm’s own words: “Our field trees are tagged and sold the week before Thanksgiving. They are always in great demand and sell out quickly.” That week is the reservation-only opening weekend, and if you miss it what is left is the pre-cuts brought in from Thanksgiving onward. The hours change three times across the season — 8:30am on the opening weekend, 9am over Thanksgiving, 8:30am again in December but closing at 4pm rather than 4:30pm — so check the row above for the weekend you are going. No prices are published anywhere on the site.

Foster’s Holly Ridge Tree Farm

Hammonton, NJ · Atlantic County

Dennis and Nancy Foster bought ten acres of neglected farmland and an 1866 farmhouse in the mid-1970s and planted their first block in 1977; their son Jeff is a full partner now. Eight acres, five species, every tree hand-pruned each summer — and a way of selling that is different from everywhere else on this page: you choose, they cut.

Worth knowingThe farm’s own needle-retention notes are the useful part: Canaan fir (pronounced Ka-naan) and Douglas fir are both rated very good, blue spruce good. Canaan has the balsam aroma and a layered branch structure; Douglas has been their most popular tree for years, soft to touch and fragrant when crushed; blue spruce has the stiffest branches for heavy ornaments. Take a farm map when you arrive — it shows which variety is planted where.

Before you set offYou do not cut the tree, and an untagged tree is not for sale. Every tree for sale carries a tag with a price and a location number: you tear off the bottom of the tag, bring the stub to the office, and the farm cuts it either that day or on a pickup date you choose, baling it just before. Trees without tags are held back to keep next year’s selection good. No credit cards. The farm is halfway between Philadelphia and Atlantic City, just off Exit 28 of the Atlantic City Expressway.

Eisele’s Christmas Tree Farm

Petersburg, NJ · Cape May County

A Cape May County family farm growing three species — Douglas fir, white fir and white pine — where the family cuts the tree for you, bagging is free, and the greens are free to anyone buying a tree. They keep bees as well, so ask about the local honey.

Worth knowingThe farm’s own comparison of its three species is short and useful: Douglas fir has the shortest needles, white fir — concolor — has a medium needle and a distinct citrus smell, and white pine has the longest and softest needle of the three. All three, it says, hold their needles for a long period after being cut. You can also have a tree dug rather than cut, for an extra fee, or dig it yourself for nothing — which is how to get a tree you can plant afterwards.

Before you set offNo 2026 dates. The hours page is headed “2025 hours of operation” and lists that season day by day, so the pattern above is the durable part rather than this year’s calendar: Fridays 1pm to 4pm, Saturdays and Sundays 9am to 4pm, and other days by appointment on 609-628-2758. The farm publishes no email address, so that number is the only way to ask. It supports Trees for Troops.

How much does a Christmas tree cost at a farm in South Jersey?

These are the prices the farms publish: Belly Acres in Franklinville, $60 any tree; Dupras’ Evergreen Acres in Mays Landing, ~$45–$120. The other farms don't publish a price, so ask when you call.

Which farms in South Jersey stay open until Christmas?

Bill’s Tree Farm in Egg Harbor Township is open until 23 December or later. Check each card for the days of the week, since several open at weekends only.

Can I bring my dog to a Christmas tree farm in South Jersey?

Belly Acres in Franklinville and Exley’s Christmas Tree Farms in Sewell welcome dogs; each card says on what terms. Dupras’ Evergreen Acres in Mays Landing and Gerstenbacher Christmas Tree Farm in Pittsgrove don’t allow dogs among the trees. The other farms don't say, so ring before you bring one.

Which farms in South Jersey haven't posted their 2026 dates?

Eisele’s Christmas Tree Farm in Petersburg, Deans Evergreens in Monroeville and Gerstenbacher Christmas Tree Farm in Pittsgrove. They are listed because people look for them by name, and each card says what the farm has published so far.

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.

South Jersey here means Gloucester, Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland and Salem counties: Sewell and Monroeville, Hammonton, Mays Landing and Egg Harbor Township, Petersburg near Ocean City, Port Norris on the Delaware Bay and Pittsgrove. Directories and news roundups were used only to find farms, never for a date or a price.
