Pine is
a favorite Christmas tree grown in Iowa. These trees are grown
at the farm so customers can choose and cut a tree down or pick
from our freshly pre-cut trees. Needles are 1 to 2 1/2 inches
in length.
Price - $5 a foot for trees up to 9 foot in height. Taller trees
are available at a slightly higher price.

White Pine
White
Pine also grown in Iowa, is fluffy and very soft
to the touch. It has needles longer than the Scotch Pine, usually
2 to 3 inches in length. This tree will not hold heavy ornaments
because it's branches are very limber.
Price - $6 a foot for trees up to 9 foot in height. Taller trees
are available at a slightly higher price.

It's probably
the most important part of having a great looking tree and is
one of the most overlooked item at Christmas. A tree must have
a fresh cut on it when it is brought into the home and the tree
must never run out of water. Your tree stand should hold over 1 gallon
of water and should be checked daily to ensure that there is water
in the stand. Add water as necessary, but never let the tree run
dry or else a new cut on the bottom of the tree will be required.
