You can choose to either have a staff member cut down the tree for you once you’ve selected one, or you can opt to cut the tree yourself.
The staff was very friendly and helpful and they assisted us in finding the perfect Silvertip variety Christmas tree. We planned on going the first opening day of the season because we wanted there to be plenty of great trees to select from. It was voted the #1 Tree Farm in El Dorado County and we had a great experience. This Apple Hill holiday guide includes the best u-cut Christmas tree farms, winter activities, foods to eat and insider tips.Īll of the Christmas tree photos in this blog post were taken during our trip to the McGee Christmas Tree Farm. Most of the Christmas tree farms open the day after Thanksgiving and stay open until the week of Christmas (or until they sell out). The Christmas tree varieties include Douglas Fir, White Fir, Canaan, Noble Fir and Silvertip. The colorful fall foliage is still very prominent during the last week of November and sometimes there’s snow as early as December.Īpple Hill is one of the few places in Northern California where you can go into the Christmas tree farms and cut down your own tree. During the fall season there’s pumpkins patches and apple picking, and then beginning in late November - December the Christmas tree and holiday season begins. We had been looking forward to selecting and cutting down our own Christmas tree all week!Īpple Hill is essentially an outdoor playground for families with countless farms that welcome visitors. It’s about an hour drive from our house to the Placerville and El Dorado County area. The day after Thanksgiving we loaded up the car and headed North-East from Sacramento into Apple Hill.
