Title: Christmas Trees
Post by: Knox on December 15, 2011, 10:40:02 AM

We'd like to go cut our own tree this weekend.
Can anyone recommend any farms or such they've used in the past?

I've heard mention of the Junior Forest Rangers or Wardens or somesuch out towards the mountains, and then there was something in Priddis with the Boy Scouts Beavers or something... just a little light on details :P

Junior ranger farm is just out by the Sibbald shooting range. About a 30 min drive or so. Havent actually been there myself, but coming back from the Range there is usually 3 or 4 trucks coming out with some nice looking trees!

There is the perfect tree just around the corner from you in the front yard of the house with the mango JK and the guy getting yelled at for parting out jeeps. Trunk is only about 4" thick so it would be fast to get.
