About Spruce Goose Christmas Tree Farm

Spruce Goose Christmas Tree Farm is a family-run, cut-your-own Christmas tree farm in Chesterfield, in Burlington County. You walk the fields, choose the tree you want and cut it down yourself. The farm grows Canaan fir, Concolor fir, Douglas fir, blue spruce, Norway spruce and white pine, in sizes up to 10 feet, and the staff will give you guidance on species and types if you are not sure what to pick.

Saws are ready for you, and the farm sharpens them each season. Tree wagons, netting, twine and tree shaking, which knocks out the old needles, are all free. Local workers help net and load your tree.

The farm also sells premium pre-cut Fraser fir brought in from North Carolina, while supplies last. Each one gets a fresh cut and goes into water, and the branches around the trunk are trimmed for a better fit in a stand. The farm's Christmas shop and barn store sell wreaths, grave blankets, roping, tree stands and waterers, ornaments and other decorations, so you can leave with everything you need to set the tree up.

Ask at the register for a free treat for young helpers. The farm accepts Visa, Mastercard and Discover.

A Brief History

John Benton planted the first trees in the spring of 1987 and the farm sold its first tree in 1993. Over the years it added tree netting, tree wagons, tree shaking, the Christmas shop and pre-cut Fraser fir. Today there are ten acres of trees, and a quality tree takes 8 to 10 years to grow. The farm replants seedlings every spring.

John and Karyn run the farm with their family. John has more than 30 years of experience as a New Jersey forester and is a licensed New Jersey Tree Expert. The farm is a member of both the New Jersey and National Christmas Tree Growers Associations.

Programs / Education

The farm supports the NJ Agricultural Society's Farmers Against Hunger program, which connects fresh food from farms to families, and matches every donation its customers collect each year.
