Welcome to Greene Meadows Farm!
One of the last choose and cut Christmas Tree Farms in Central Virginia!

 


Christmas 2024

 


Update 3 (2 Dec).  This past weekend may have been our busiest since we took over the farm, thanks for all those who came out to support us.  We saw a lot of long time customers and many new ones.  We will re-open on Friday 6 Dec and remain open throughout the weekend.  We still have a good quantity of precut Fraser, Douglas, Concolor Firs on hand and White Pines in the field with a limited number of Spruce trees.  Additionally we have a good selection of decorated and undecorated wreaths available.  Anne will have the  hot chocolate and cider ready; see you this weekend!!! 

Update 2 (27 Nov). The pre-cut trees are on the farm and we are finishing the taging of trees today.  We just need to complete some small tasks in preparation for opening on Friday.  The weather for Friday and the weekend looks clear but chilly so dress warm.  Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!! and we will see you soon.   

Update 1 (12 Nov).  We can't believe that Christmas Season is here!!!  The precuts have been ordered and I will pick them up the week of Thanksgiving from Pennsylvania and Southwest Virginia.  Precuts will include various sizes of Douglas, Fraser, and Concolor Firs.  We have a nice selection of White Pines and very limited supply of Fir and Spruces in the field.  As a reminder, in order to reduce costs we elected not to advertise in Charlottesville Family Magazine, so if you don't see our add, don't worry we are still open this year.  We continue to prepare for our 29 Nov opening and look forward to seeing our regular as well as new customers.  Look for additional updates....  

Welcome to Greene Meadows Farm
 

It is our objective to provide a traditional Christmas experience to our friends, neighbors, and customers.

We invite you to come out to the farm and search through over 7 acres of trees or choose from our selection of fresh pre-cut trees featuring the Concolor Fir.

After you've either cut a tree from the fields or selected a pre-cut tree, visit our new Christmas Shop, enjoy a cup of complimentary Hot Chocolate or Cider and a Candy Cane, and browse our selection of ornaments and other decorations and gift items.

Augment your traditional family decorations by choosing a freshly made wreath, swag, or garland.

Visit the lambs and don't forget your camera...you'll want to capture the moment or take a picture of the beautiful mountains and scenery.

 

A Note to Our Friends, Neighbors, Loyal, and New Customers...

It's hard to believe but Christmas is almost here.  We've been busy preparing for your visit sprucing up the farm.  This is a year round job but takes on a higher priority during November.  Every year it seems to faster and faster.

As I mentioned in the update I will pick up the Pre-cut trees the week of Thanksgiving from Pennsylvannia and Southwest Virginia.  My PA supplier was only to fill a portion of my requirement this year, so more trees will be coming from Southwest VA.  I was fortunate to get 50 additional trees this year.  We will have Concolor, Fraser, and Douglas Firs in a variety of heights to include 12 plus Douglas Fir.       

For our Concolor Fir customers, we will continue to have a nice selection pre-cut trees from our supplier in Pennsyvannia and now from Virginia.  Remember all of our pre-cut trees are cut the week of Thanksgiving and are stored out of the wind and sun to preserve freshness.  

For choose and cut we have a nice selection of White Pines and a very reduced selection of Canaan Firs, and Spruces.  The drought has fortunately not impacted us significantly, we were able to water our newly planted seedlings, but we still need about a week of easy rain.    Watch out for the baby trees when walking the fields.     

By popular demand, we continue to offer our Greene Meadows Farm private label preserves and jelly's that include Apple Butter, Black Berry Preserves, Pumpkin Butter, Horseradish Mustard and Hot Pepper Jelly.  These items make great stocking "stuffers" and great gifts for friends and family.  Remember to reserve a jar or two for your own enjoyment. 

Based on demand, we will also continue to offer the Krinner Tree Stand; you may recall Anne refers to it as the "marriage saver" stand.  Once you see the demonstration you'll want one.  

Santa continues to be impressed with the letters he received last year from the farm and has agreed to provide the "Special Mail Box" again this year.  As you may remember John had a long talk with Santa five years ago and he agreed to give us a special mail box for direct mailing to the North Pole.  So if your interested in sending Santa a letter, you can bring it with you to the Farm or we will have paper and pencils so you can write one during your visit.  An Elf from the North Pole Post Office comes down after each weekend and picks up the letters so you can be sure Santa is going to see them.  Santa let John continue to borrow one of his old sleds for the Farm for pictures. 

A Ho Ho Hogan and Big Bo Update....The same report as last.  Both Hogan and Bo think they're puppies even though they are 9 years old.  Needless to say at around 80 and 100+ pounds they are not ready to venture down freely to the selling area.  We still hold out hope that one day they will be able to take there place on the farm greeting customers like Koda did.

Anne's shop that we built last year will be open with tree care supplies, wreaths, and unique items to include ornaments, mugs and decorations.  As we have done over the last 3 years, Anne will set up the cash register on a table infront of the doors under the porch.  This approach is favored by our customers and is more efficient.  We will continue our tradition of offering complimentry hot cup of cider or hot chocolate and coloring books and candy canes. 

We say this every year and it is true...The most enjoyable part of the farm is visiting with our friends and neighbors who return each year to  make us a part of their Christmas and meeting the new folks who venture out to Greene Meadows in search of that traditional Christmas experience.

For your convenience we accept cash and credit cards.

We look forward to seeing you again this year!
