The snow left the tree field on April 23, and we are cleaning the field of left over branches so as to prepare for a 2018 cut your own Christmas tree season in 2018.
Morning fog over one field in October
We give trees for "Trees for Troops". We cut some on 11/20 and have to tightly bail (wrap) them because they are shipped along with other donated trees from other growers via FedEx. Tight trees means more trees per truck load. It was a warmer day and a little hand bailing produced a tight bundled tree.
A couple of colored trees in our front field. Viking purple and bubble gum pink. The purple ones were sold the first weekend.
The Covered Bridge Farm is a family owned and operated farm with 20 acres dedicated to cut your own Christmas trees in season. We are located in the northern suburbs of the Twin Cities, just 4 mi. north of Hugo, MN, on the east side of US 61. On the map, we are 3 miles due east, as the crow flies, of the 35E - 35W split on US 61. Click here for directions.
