Before you go

A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in California.

  • Check whether this stop is a stand, orchard tour, or full farm experience before you arrive.

“Update: 😊 it’s a week after Christmas and both trees are still green and barely dropped any needles. I never even had to sweep! And we had the trees for about 3 weeks (4 if you count post-Christmas). So, we will definitely come back next year! I feel like a NERD updating this review but Christmas trees are such a gamble, and they aren’t cheap, so I hope this helps. Previous review: I noticed a lack of recent reviews so I’m just here to attest to the wonderful quality of these trees and the staff!! Of course you really don’t know until a couple weeks in how quality the tree is, but it’s been 3 days and minimal needles have fallen. Not enough to even need to sweep! The guys who helped cut our trees and put them on stands were so wonderful. $365 all in for two trees (5’ and 7’) with $40 stands on each. My husband can smell the pine more than me, and even without a sharp nose I can certainly smell the scent of Christmas. Lovely!!!”

“Excellent customer service. Definitely a genuine love for neighbor here. Genuine Christmas spirit. So thankful. Parker was wonderful and talented at cutting and trimming our tree choice and was a pro at arranging our tree on the stand. Perfectly straight too. Loaded it in my car so well. Thank you so much. Highly recommend. I was able to get a nice tree for $85 for our small humble home. I am so grateful. Made Christmas possible for my family here in South O'side.”

“My Company is beyond happy with our Christmas trees. Purdy Farm Trees have the most green trees and they are just so beautiful! We didn’t know what to expect in the aspect of pricing and their prices were great. We drove around many tree lots and their trees were sky rocket because of shortage of trees, and purdy trees are worth paying more than what they’re selling their trees for. Thank you and see ya next year! Merry Christmas 🎄”

“I’m so in love with my tree 🌲 my boyfriend and I buy our Christmas tree their every year 😊 they also have such beautiful Flocked trees ever!! you don’t even have to water them. Prices are less than Home Depot Or Costco and those places don’t have their trees on stands for you to see what the tree looks like. Look on their website for a coupon 😊 they also delivered my tree for a great price. Had to share their goodies 🎄🌲”

“Big Mike helped us pick out a beautiful tree, put on our stand and put it in our truck. It couldn’t have been easier. Great experience.”

“Great trees and even better customer service!!!”

“Nice looking trees, friendly staff, but their staff is not trained properly. We bought a tree but we later learned that they did not make a fresh cut at the bottom of the tree. Our tree now just isn't drinking water, and is already turning brown, after just 3 weeks. Paid $120 for a tree that will be brown on Christmas. If you plan on buying a tree from this place, be sure to observe the staff to make sure they give your tree a fresh cut.”

“The service is incredible and I fell in love with a beautiful 8' tree. I got it home set it up, watered it twice but unfortunately the needle fall is the most I've ever experienced. It's been a single week and I don't expect this guy to last thru Christmas. Literally touching it slightly creates a shower of needles. If you buy here, ask them how long they've had the trees laying around. I should have. My bad.”
