We started Alexander’s Christmas Tree Farm quite by accident more than 30 years ago. Jim has always liked trees, and had planted quite a few along one of our lanes. Near Christmas one year, he realized that the trees were too close together, and we decided to trim a few and put a sign on the corner and sell them as Christmas trees. We sold all the trees we had the first week-end, and decided to plant more trees. Over the years, we’ve expanded to about 9 acres of trees, and we currently have over 5000 trees of various sizes and varieties. |

When we first started, our “sales building” was our pick-up truck, and when we added the baler, it was set up outside. In 1992 we built our current barn, and put the baler inside, along with a tree shaker. On certain week-ends in December, Santa himself can be found here. We have also added a tree drilling machine, which is set up outside of our sales building. This is used to drill a hole in the trunk of the tree to facilitate the use of our new "pin" type tree stands. |
