Our last customers of the year!

We happy to meet some new customers who braved the stormy day and we are also excited to be selling some of the trees that planted the first year we were here!

Our favorite part of this is getting to share the smiles of the season.

It really is a delight to see our return customers year after year.

Another new family we were happy to meet.

We hope everyone is happy with their trees!

We had a lot of really beautiful days this season.

Blue skies, lovely trees, nice families, and one really cute really fluffy really small dog.

We are happy that our customers appreciate our naturally grown nobles.

And that they enjoy finding just the right tree for them:

 And really just happy to share this bit of the season with such wonderful people.

Thanks for a great weekend!

Happy to meet a new family who found our farm by passing the ones down the hill that were too crowded.

We aren't the only ones who like unshaped, naturally grown Christmas trees.

The young man in the picture carried this tree the whole way back to the car all by himself!

We enjoy it too when customers are happy to take their time and walk around to find the tree that is just right.

Such a nice visit with our last customers of the weekend.

First tree of the day!

Baby's first time seeing an alpaca.

Happy to meet more new customers.

Only in Oregon for a month, but they found our little farm!

Some of our regular egg customers, branching out into Christmas tree customers.  (Branching, get it? Hahahah!)

We are so happy to meet so many nice families through word of mouth, or at least word of text.

Adventure successful!

Great to meet more members of a returning family!

Wonder-Daddy helping his little girl fly.


Pretty happy with their feet on the ground too.

Craig grew up in a teeny tiny town on the other side of the country.  Much to our surprise, several years ago, another man who knew Craig from also growing up in the same teeny tiny town showed up at our farm with his family.  That was pretty great.

Good friends getting their annual Douglas fir.

Another family looking for an unsprayed tree who found us this year!

The biggest tree of the year so far!

It's really an exciting process to get such a big tree cut, hauled, and up on the truck!  The tractor helps A LOT.

We are very happy that new customers have been able to find us by searching for natural Christmas trees online.

Lots of fun when friends who have only visited during the summer join us for Christmas tree season.

The sun getting low as the last tree of the weekend gets carried back to the car:

Good friends and their tree in orange light as sunset nears:

Great to see friends of my cousin!

Happy to meet a new family from not too far down the hill.

And always wonderful to see families who return each year.

So nice to meet new customers and extra exciting when one of them (Jeffree, right) is going to be in the new movie, Wild!

First tree of the year for our out of town customer (who is in town just long enough to get a tree here each year).

We always choose a tree for ourselves that needs to be harvested for one reason or another, but this year the wind storm chose our tree for us by knocking an old dead tree down on top of this one.

Christmas Tree Season 2014

Our favorite time of year at Corner Crest Natural Farm has arrived again.  This is our seventh season selling Christmas trees from our hillside in North Plains, Oregon and we are so happy to be here.  

We offer naturally grown Nobles that are unsprayed as well as unshaped.  Our selection includes trees of all sizes, including many very tall Noble firs that are great for vaulted ceilings.  The branches grow in tiers so decorations can hang freely, giving it a look which is sometimes referred to as a Layered Noble.  This traditional Christmas tree is a lovely way to highlight your ornaments, as well as a healthy way to bring holiday spirit into your home.  

We primarily sell U-Cut Christmas Trees with a rustic, small farm experience.  We provide saws and twine as well as hot cocoa, honey mint tea, and candy canes.  We are always happy to give you a hand and we usually have only one or two cars of people here at a time, except on our busiest days.  Most folks that come to our farm like to take their time hiking around and enjoying the view while they choose their tree.  We are on the edge of the forest and overlook the valley.  

Our trees are not planted in rows, but rather in the shadows of the older nobles to help the young ones survive the summer sun.  The natural growth also leads to more variety and character among the trees which can make the selection more of an adventure.

We lack the Certified Organic Christmas Tree label, but our Christmas trees are grown without sprays and artificial fertilizers.  We have found that unshaped trees seem less susceptible to pests and fungus, so they are naturally healthier too.  You can be confident that our trees will not bring harmful chemicals into your home, and that our farming practices do not put them into the environment.  In fact, farming Christmas trees like this is good for the planet.  

Each tree absorbs more than 1 ton of CO2 in its lifetime and each acre provides the daily oxygen requirements of 18 people.  Live trees are renewable, keep plastic out of landfills, and conserve the resources used in manufacturing them.  

Last year Craig planted about 200 seedlings, mostly Noble Firs as usual, but for the first time we also included some Grand Firs.  These young trees ensure the sustainability of our crop for the future.  We are excited that this year some of the seedlings that Craig planted our first year here have grown into lovely Noble Firs that would be a nice fit for some of our customers who like a smaller tree.  In the coming years, more and more of what we sell will come from Craig's plantings as they grow into mature Christmas trees.  

We hope you come to share a little holiday spirit with us here at Corner Crest Natural Farm.  Meeting new people and seeing friends from years past is truly a highlight of our Christmas season.
