Sourcing your own Christmas tree can be a lot of fun for the whole family. For some families, it has become a veritable tradition they look forward to year after year. In Washington state, there are many places where U cut Christmas trees WA. Going directly to the farm and cutting your own tree means you can get one that is just the right size and shape for the space in your home.

In addition to cutting your own tree, there are several other options. You can choose a live tree and ask for it to be cut. Another option is to buy a tree already cut. Or you can buy a living tree you can plant and then keep it for the future. There are many farms that offer these options.

Perhaps the most popular option is the choose-and-cut Christmas tree farm. There option to buy precut (also known as pre-harvested or fresh-cut) trees is also popular. Be aware that, in Washington state, private you-cut permits are required.

Another option is to cut a tree from a national forest. This alternative appeals to families wanting a rough-cut appearance. A rustic look lends authenticity to the tree. A permit is also needed for this option in Washington state.

Private you-cut and national forest permits are available from the State Department of National Resources (DNR). The permits are relatively inexpensive, costing only a handful of dollars. Cutting a tree or bough from state forests is not allowed in Washington. Penalties apply for damaging or stealing a state forest tree.

Whatever alternative a family chooses, a review of the farm website is a good idea. The site will describe the product range available at the farm. It will also provide contact details for the farm. It is always wise to call or email in advance to check availability, business hours and other details. Checking in advance can save farms often sell out their stock early.

Care is needed when cutting a tree or branch. For example, cutting boughs can destroy an entire mature tree, representing many decades of growth. When the top branches are cut off a young tree, the tree becomes more vulnerable to disease.

Some families choose to order their tree weeks, if not months, in advance. The Christmas season is only short and the demand for trees can be strong. Ordering ahead of time can avoid being disappointed, particularly when bad weather disrupts supply. This easy precaution helps to ensure U cut Christmas trees WA.
