You’re early!
We’re still in the process of updating this info for 2021. You’re welcome to browse the existing content now, but please check back soon for the most current details.
The holiday season kicks off soon, and for many families that will mean choosing a Christmas tree.
While there will soon be tree lots in parking lots and on corners everywhere, we’re focusing on Christmas tree farms that are within an easy drive from metro Atlanta, and that offer a fun, seasonal, outdoor excursion.
Our list includes 6 farms that open on Saturday, Nov. 21st, and a few more that open on Thanksgiving weekend.
The list may continue to grow, so please check back when you’re ready to go tree shopping.
A tip: Before you get in the car, be sure to call ahead or check the farm’s status and daily hours.
Shop early for the best selection. The farms will close for the season when they’re out of trees.
And remember that many farms won’t be offering the usual hayrides or Santa visits in 2020.
Do you have a Christmas tree farm or large lot that you’d like to have featured at the top of our list? It’s an affordable marketing option to consider. Just email ads@atlantaonthecheap.com
