Care Instructions

Our Christmas trees will last at least six weeks with good care.

The most important tips are:

Saw 2cm off the bottom of your tree when you get home, just before you put it in water.
Keep the water topped up, and don’t let it get below the bottom of the tree trunk.

The Team

After an incredible 10 years of growing Christmas trees, Jared, Jack, Alex and Nat have passed custodianship of the farm to a new Tasmanian family. We are so excited to take the reins, and we can’t wait to see everyone at the farm this year.

You can read more about the amazing Mendham family story here or stay tuned to hear more about us and the future of the farm!

Tree-cycle

You can bring your tree back to the farm in January and we’ll mulch it!

On the second weekend in January, 10am – 12pm, you can drop your tree back to us and we’ll mulch it and return it to farm.

It’s closed loop and zero waste! We appreciate your participation.

Our Environmental Responsibility

Agriculture has a major role to play in righting this climate debacle we’re in the midst of – and we love the fact that purchasing a tree from our farm that has been locking up carbon for 3-7 years, goes someway to carbon-offsetting many Tasmanian Christmases. We’re pretty proud of that.

We’re an off-grid farm and are establishing spray-free practices. And we’re big on planting native wind-breaks that double as habit corridors.

Annually, we have a Tree-Cycle day, where you can bring your tree back to the farm in January, and we’ll mulch it and use it again!

We are stewards of a beautiful piece of lutruwita/Tasmania, and we take our responsibility seriously.
