West Michigan Christmas Tree Farms: 15+ Places to Cut Your Own Christmas Tree in 2023

Cut Your Own Christmas Tree Farm - Old Grove Michigan

Kick Off the Holidays at These Cut Your Own Christmas Tree Farms

It’s not every day that you get to star in your own Hallmark holiday movie, but when you set out for a Christmas tree farm with handsaws and hot cocoa, kids and pup in tow, the stage is set.

It doesn’t matter if you match your sweaters or throw on whatever’s cozy. Trekking through rows of white pine and blue spruce, and my personal favorite, the citrus-smelling concolor fir, is hands-down one of our family’s top Christmas activities.

If you’re not sure where to go to get your tree, no worries! Our tradition is to try a new tree farm every year, so we’ve been to many on this list.

15+ Unforgettable Christmas Tree Farms in West Michigan that Let You Cut Your Own Christmas Tree

About The Author

6 thoughts on “West Michigan Christmas Tree Farms: 15+ Places to Cut Your Own Christmas Tree in 2023”

  1. Need to add Duddles Tree Farm in Reed City (Ashton), just north of Big Rapids. Wonderful family owned tree farm that has been serving families for decades.

  2. For 10 years in all weather I took my kids to the Red Flannel Tree farm. There we chose the just-right tree, rode the tractor, had hot chocolate, and tied the tree to our car roof. Each year i enjoyed seeing the guys and our aging together, if only 2 hours a year!
    It can feel extra cold on the hills so be sure to bundle up and enjoy. I bought the tree stand they sell and recommend it.
    Keeping our tree up till Valentines Day meant tree removal was like ushering out a reluctant porcupine, and my adult kids pushed me to get a fake tree. But I cherish the real memories of cutting our own. And of the 3 places I’ve done so, Red Flannel is the place we made our annual trek.

  3. Disclaimer/warning- Lenderink is nicely set up but a small place and most trees five foot or under this year. We went there today and after riding in the metal cart pulled by the truck- we decided to go elsewhere. They were very nice, helpful, and did have marshmellow roasting, free hot chocolate, and sledding for kids. Just short trees and small selection.

    Red Flannel- in Cedar is where we ended up. The experience was great! Extremely friendly, welcoming staff. Told us what types of trees (had examples b/c who remembers what you had last year), and 4-5 rides at a time- 2 horse drawn- 3 tractor (which my son preferred) so never had to wait to get a ride back. Free hot chocolate, popcorn by donation, and cookies (3/$1) while they shake, bundle, and wrap your tree.

    We drove from Kentwood but took Northland/Beltline back for fear my husband’s lead foot would lose the tree on the highway. Definitely worth the drive.

    1. Thank you. We were planning on going to Lenderink’s next weekend. We will head to Red Flannel instead. Thanks for the info!
