Nothing says it’s Christmastime quite like finally putting up the tree. While many of us have artificial trees these days, there’s something to be said about going out and picking out a real tree. Maybe it’s the smell of the pines, or maybe it’s the sight of snow-covered trees in the cool air. Whatever it is, it’s such a delightful experience that it’s no wonder it became Christmas tradition. If you’d like to keep the tradition alive this year, consider a trip to Krueger’s Tree Farm in Lake Elmo, Minnesota. This full-service Christmas tree farm has everything you need to get your tree home. To top it off, you can even take a wagon ride across their beautiful grounds. Take a look:
Krueger's Christmas Tree Farm is a charming farm in Lake Elmo, Minnesota. The farm began selling Christmas trees in 1954, and it has been a popular place ever since.
The popularity of Krueger's stems from all that this farm has to offer. For example, there's a beautiful place for guests to warm up and enjoy the scenery. If it's super cold, head inside to the warming house.
The ride will take you on a quick tour of the beautiful farm. Though it is a short distance from the Twin Cities, this farm really feels far away thanks to its rural surroundings and natural beauty.
Along the way, you may discover your picture-perfect Christmas tree. Krueger's grows several kinds, including balsam fir, Fraser fir, Canaan fir, white pine, Scotch pine, and Norway pine. You're guaranteed to find the kind of tree that meets your needs.
Being a full-service Christmas tree farm, the Krueger's crew will help you collect your tree. Included in the price of a tree is shaking, drilling, baling, and cutting.
