RI Christmas Tree Farm Map 2021: Where To Cut Your Own

RHODE ISLAND — Cutting down your own Christmas tree has long been a tradition for Rhode Island families. Some people buy fake trees; but for many, the tradition of going and picking out a tree while enjoying some hot chocolate can't be beat.

Did you know that some 350 million Christmas trees are growing in all 50 U.S. states, and 25 million are cut and sold each year?

There are tree farms all around Rhode Island, some of which are a short drive outside of cities such as Providence, Pawtucket and Woonsocket.

Last year, the National Christmas Tree Association developed a guide including recommendations and best practices for Christmas tree sellers to follow amid the coronavirus pandemic. They include frequently sanitizing items and areas such as hand saws, tree cart handles, counter-tops, door handles and restrooms.

Use this guide to find a tree farm near you and check out the interactive map below. Tree farms do sell out, so make sure to call ahead before you go out and pick your Christmas tree.
