Christmas tree farms in Texas

Almost all of them open on Friday 27 November, the day after Thanksgiving, and then run at weekends until they sell out. The first is Dellinger’s at Center, whose Christmas store, with a small field of pine beside it, opened on 23 October; then 7 Tree Farm near Lufkin, on Saturday 14 November, and Athens follows on Friday 20 November, open every day after that. A good number open the weekend before Thanksgiving, on Saturday 21 November: Elgin near Austin, Devine Acres near San Antonio, Kadee, Hemingway Hill and KaJiN near Dallas, E-5 near Henderson, four farms near Houston and Hickory Hills at Woodville. Dadda G’s near Henderson sells pre-cut fir from Sunday 22 November, Pipe Creek opens on Monday 23 November and then every day, M & M near Beaumont the same day, Solstice in East Texas and Beavers’ at Nome, in its last season, on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, and Merket near Longview, Plantation Pines in Tyler, Iron Hill near Crockett, and Bozeman’s and Pattarozzi near Beaumont, on Thanksgiving Day itself.

That bunching matters more in Texas than it does in the mountains. A farm here grows perhaps a few thousand trees, opens for four or five weekends and stops when the field is empty: Brushy Creek near Bowie sold out of cut-your-owns inside three weekends last season. If you want a tall tree, the opening weekend is not an optional nicety.

It is too hot. What grows here is Virginia pine, Leyland cypress, Murray cypress and Arizona cypress, and those are what you cut. They hold a different shape from a fir — softer, denser, less of a classic cone — and the cypresses barely smell, which suits anyone who finds a fir overpowering and disappoints everyone else.

The Fraser firs on sale at Texas farms were cut on a North Carolina mountainside and trucked down, usually days before the farm opens. They are pre-cut, not choose-and-cut, and the haulage is in the price. Sunset Hill sells both and the gap shows: about $12 a foot for its own trees against about $16 a foot for the fir. The southern trees compared goes through what each one is actually like in a room.

These are listed so you know they were checked, not forgotten. None of them has published a 2026 season we can treat as fact, and none is carrying last year’s dates here as though they were this year’s.

• The Lazy K, Godley, south-west of Fort Worth — still shows an undated “closed for the season” notice.
• Seiler’s Christmas Trees, Seguin, east of San Antonio — still shows “out of trees and closed for the season”, last updated 2012. We have written to ask whether it still operates.
• Brushy Creek Christmas Trees, Bowie, north-west of Fort Worth — has posted nothing for 2026.
• Shooting Star Ranch, Campbell, north-east of Dallas — says it is “closed for the 2026 season”.

Every farm on this page was read on its own website, Facebook or Instagram on 6 Nov 2026, or told us its dates by email. Two did: Sunset Hill on 26 September and Haynie’s on 12 October, and both say so on their entry.

We do not take dates from the growers’ association directory at texaschristmastrees.com. It was wrong twice this season, listing two farms as closed that were open. Where a farm’s own page could not be read — a broken certificate, a site that will not load — this page says that, rather than reporting it as “nothing posted”.

Dates and prices change. If you find something here that no longer matches the farm, say so and it gets fixed the same day.
