Once again Hopestill Farm is offering cut-your-own Christmas trees. Join us to begin or continue a family farm tradition.

This summer’s weather was certainly a challenge for farms everywhere in New England, but our trees pulled through just fine—deep roots in good soil allowed them to continue growing despite the drought and successive heat waves.

Our trees are mostly white spruce plus some blue spruce, with many to choose from in the 6-foot to 8-foot range, along with a few bigger bargains as well. Like all our produce, our trees are certified organically grown. All trees are $70 by Venmo (@hopestillfarm), cash, or check. (Sorry, no credit cards). We ask for a $20 deposit once you tag a tree.

Join NOFA/Mass, get $5 off!

We are once again offering a discount to members of the Northeast Organic Farming Association, Massachusetts chapter (NOFA/Mass). Join now at www.nofamass.org .

Every year, NOFA/Mass teaches hundreds of people across the state better ways to grow food and take care of the landscape through our workshops and conferences; provides critical lobbying and organizing efforts to advance key bills on Beacon Hill to improve soil health and reduce irresponsible herbicide use; brings intensive training in gardening to urban neighborhoods in Springfield and elsewhere, through our food access programs; and helps farmers improve their soil, and their understanding of the importance of soil organic matter, through our soil technical assistance programs. This year we helped spearhead pollinator protection throughout the Commonwealth and save a historic community garden in Allston, and advocated for responsible pesticide reporting, food access equity, and a host of other important bills.

You don’t need to be a farmer to be a member!  Join now at www.nofamass.org to support this important work, AND get $5 off your tree!

Cutting

You are of course welcome to cut your tree at the same time as you select it, or come on one of the weekends we are open, or make an appointment for a different day and time. We have handsaws, or you are welcome to bring your own. No axes or chainsaws, please. We also have twine for tying your tree on your car.

We look forward to seeing you!

Thanks, Richard and Wendy
