If you're on the hunt for a live Christmas tree in the Oak Grove area of the Twin Cities, Our Farm…read moreChristmas Tree Farm is the place to go! A father and sons establishment, Our Farm has been 15 years in the making. The Ritcher family started planting trees in 1998 on their property with several varieties--Balsamic and Fraser firs or Scotch, White, and Norway pines. They offer cut-your-own or pre-cut! My family grew up with the lovely smell of pine in the house around Christmas time, and it has been a continued tradition to trek out into the woods and cut a tree ourselves. At Our Farm, you have the option to walk all around the 40 acres to hunt for your preferred tree, or one of the sons can offer to drive you into the back area (where all of the biggest and best trees can be found.) We were pleasantly surprised by the selection. We had trouble deciding because every tree seemed like the perfect one. I think the best part though was getting to enjoy the beautiful property. When we settled on the perfect tree, the Ritchers shook the excess needles off and bailed it for us. They even were kind enough to assist in tying it down to our truck's roof. The Ritchers were folksy and incredibly pleasant to chat with, telling the story of his grandad was a tree farmer elsewhere in Minnesota and they wanted to continue the family tradition. Pop Ritcher has big plans for the Farm, hoping to have hay rides, hot cocoa stations, and toboggans to haul your tree up from the back woods. Really glad too that they were open just three days before Christmas. Many tree farms are closed by now. Their prices are fair for their trees. We got a huge Norway pine for $60! Be sure to make it your tradition for Christmas, to visit the Ritchers for your Christmas tree.

It is still great but I have to buy my tree very early to miss the Twin Cities folks coming up to get their trees- cut your own or precut. The family that owns this place is the best.

Definitely an enjoyable experience, even when cold! They had fires going to warm up at, and free cider! We did the pick your own tree, and they make it as easy as possible for doing that. The shaking of the tree is a game changer too- so many less needles at time of set up! My sister did mention that prices are increasing (just like everywhere else so to be expected) but says it's still worth it the extra expense!

Gordon's Greenhouse is one of the best greenhouses in the northwest suburbs!…read more This nursery is somewhat of an icon in the northwest burbs. And they've been around a long time. I was a little shocked to see that there were no Yelp reviews yet. If you're looking for a nursery with a huge variety of beautiful plants -- this is it. 1) They also have interesting, unusual, and rare varieties. 2) The plants are well cared for and beautiful. 3) The prices are all reasonable. 4) Veteran owned! Support a local business and a vet. I counted at least 8 greenhouses. Not all of them are open to the public. It depends on when you get there during the season and what's going on. They also have a gigantic quantity and variety of mulch. My only gripe is the payment procedure. The payment area is not clear. It's inside the 2nd, south side (or left side) greenhouse. When it's busy, it's confusing. There's no clear area for waiting & forming a line, and the workers seemed a little overwhelmed. I was there yesterday and there were 3 ladies hopping around, confused, ringing people up out of order. Stop by if you're in the area (in season). You won't regret it. -Daddy Maxx Retro
