We go to this little farm out north 185th every year. I think they are $35. The tree lasts well beyond the season if kept in water. They cut and trim it and load it up for you.

Do you mean you pick the tree and they cut it down then and there, or do you mean they cut the bottom of a tree that was already cut?
I'm in the Beaverton area for now, so that's not too far.
They cut it down while you are there. If it is tall, they will trim off the bottom as well. Cant get any fresher than that. They have several varieties of trees too. Nice little family operation.
The wife and I are pretty simple these days. Kids are grown up, however there are the grandkids that still love the trees. So we have opted to buy a live Norfolk Pine. They withstand the small twinkle lights,which never get to hot. Plus it's a great tree to have in the house year round. Easy to care for. Or you can always go with a tactical x~mas tree. Meaning you can always sneak into the ERUDNE estate, and cut one of his trees, while he is sawing logs. Sounds like he's been doing a lot of logging on his property. Oh, and when I say sawing logs, I mean the ZZZZZZZZZ's type. You might want to take a vest. And definitely only use a hand saw. Your woman could be the look out, cut & run! Now that's a tactical X~mas tree.
That sounds nice. Any idea what the name of it is, or the hours?
The girl and I are looking to get a tree in the next few days. It's a bit early for some, and I've heard some are much better at surviving until the holiday. Anyone know which would be our best bet and which to avoid this early? Locally available, of course
Best tree I ever had was a Frazier Fir, but they're a little hard to find. We go artificial these days.
Only thing I know about them is they make great bonfires in January.
