Buy Local Delaware: Christmas Tree Guide

Firs, spruces, and pines are part of Delaware’s winter heartbeat. Across the state, more than 30 farmers work year-round to grow fresh Christmas trees, shaping and caring for them through every season.

It typically takes seven to ten years for a Christmas tree to reach about seven feet tall. When you choose a Delaware-grown tree, you’re not just decorating your home—you’re supporting local families, farmland, and a long tradition of holiday farming in the First State.

Below is a simple, county-by-county guide to help you find your next tree.

Planning Your Tree-Hunting Trip

• Call ahead: Hours, inventory, and available services (like tree shaking or baling) can change throughout the season.

• Bring the basics: Gloves, rope or straps for securing your tree, and a blanket or tarp to protect your vehicle.

• Ask about varieties: Many farms offer different types of firs, spruces, and pines—each with its own look, scent, and needle retention.

If you need help choosing where to go, use your local Christmas tree map or farm directory to see which locations are closest and what each farm offers.

Buying local keeps your holidays fresh, supports Delaware agriculture, and turns picking the tree into a tradition of its own.
