My family and I after looking at their website decided to go look for a Christmas tree at Houde's…read more We had never been there before, it was close and seemed like a nice place. When we first pulled in it looked busy not much parking. When we got closer it was more like a junk yard than a tree farm. It was riddled with old tires, snowblowers and tractor parts. When I asked where they cut your own trees where I was blankly told "Anywhere we got like 30 acres" the trees were scarce and scattered among the property not much of a selection. The grounds were not well maintained and filled with thick vines,brush and pricker bushes. My mother in-law actually took quite the fall due to the amount of over growth! We walked around for a bit to find quite literally nothing! Then we made our way up front to see their selection of pre-cut trees only to find they get them from Canada, and charge double the price of the trees on their farm. Needless to say we will not be returning to Houde's anytime soon. We ended up leaving and going to Frommer's in Lancaster they had a beautiful selection of reasonably priced Christmas trees!

I see that a couple other reviewers had the same experience as well so it doesn't seem to be a one-off moment. We came here for a Christmas tree and were pleasantly surprised by the selection (December 7th) of really good quality trees and lower prices compared to other places we've bought from in the past (ranging from $60-$80ish). Of note they take cash or check only, they do have an ATM, and the prices listed are a few dollars short of the actual price you'll pay. The teenagers working at the tree stand were very pleasant and got a fresh cut on the tree and strapped it to our car securely and efficiently. The turn for the worse came when we went to pay. The women was talking to us like we were children which was very odd and belittling (hard to portray tone but for example when I handed her the cash she went '$70, oh good job!') then when handing me back change she goes 'and your change to the food pantry?' and drops my change in a donation bucket before even finishing the question...I literally was reaching my hand out to receive the change and she just decided not to give it to me or let me answer the question. I was honestly pissed off about that. It's my money to choose what to do with and socially, how rude is it to put people in a position to have to fish their change out of a donation bin if they hadn't wanted to donate it? Overall, the woman at the checkout really tainted this place for me by straight up not giving me my change back and I don't plan to return.

These people were the salt of the earth and have a great product. I don't think you can go bad with any tree you get there. Amazing we have lived in the area for 3 years and never knew it was there. Funny note we get ice cream less than a thousand feet from the entrance. I will go back every year now! Did I mention the cut tree selection was amazing? You would think I work there with a review like this but I just love the way they run their business and care - so many businesses forget that people are the heart of a business - the team and the customers... Congrats and see ya next year!!!!
