The Choose ‘n Cut Experience

The Ellis Family Farm and the Orchard Farm are the choose ‘n cut operations of Elk River Evergreens.  Over the years, visiting these farms has become a Christmas tradition for families choosing a real Christmas tree for their holiday décor.

Our farms are set in the beautiful Appalachian mountains of northwestern North Carolina, right in the heart of Avery County ski country.  With literally thousands upon thousands of Fraser fir trees of all heights, shapes, and diameters from which to choose, our customers always find the perfect Christmas tree.

The experience of finding a tree on our farm is unparalleled; enjoy exhilarating walks through forests of Fraser fir, breathing fresh, clear, mountain air, taking in breathtaking views of Beech and surrounding mountains.  Family dogs are welcome to romp with the kids as you locate your tree.

We always say, “Bring your camera!”  The trees, mountains, foot bridges, and even our little tree farm photo booth make great settings for happy holiday photos.

It is the heartfelt desire of each Elk River Evergreens employee to make finding your perfect Christmas tree a memorable part of your Christmas celebration.  We look forward to meeting your family and being a part of your best Christmas ever.
