Q1: I've never been to a Christmas tree farm. Can you tell me what to expect?

Absolutely. You can expect to have a wonderful time at Days of Creation. Our family is available to guide you as you go.

Our farm is neat and clean and, in the words of many of our guests, "very beautiful. " The trees are planted in rows and the field is fairly flat, so walking is easy. 

When you arrive at Days of Creation, you will park near the old tobacco barn. From there, you can take the short walk to the field via Candy Cane Lane. You’ll see our animals, the picnic area, some photo opportunities, the playstack, our restrooms, and finally, the trees!

We provide saws and gloves for your use in cutting your tree. You can find them in the red shed as you enter the field.  Each tree is tagged with its height and price. If you need help, or have questions, we will have workers stationed near the Christmas tree field. Look for someone in a red Days of Creation shirt.

After you've cut your tree, you will go back to the red shed and grab one of the carts. Load your tree onto that and wheel it back up to the barn.  However, you may want to carry it to the barn yourself. Our kids -even when they were very small- always wanted to help carry the tree.

Once at the barn, our crew will process your tree by shaking it out, baling it in netting, and tying it to the roof of your car (or loading it on a truck or trailer).

While you wait for your tree to be processed, you can take your piece of the tag and pay for it under the barn. You can also grab some free hot chocolate or apple cider from the serving station next to the barn (the tent). Under the barn you’ll also see fresh-made wreaths, potted trees, ornaments, custom cards, some small toys and other items.

We sell marshmallow-roasting packets you can use at our fire pit. We also have yard games set up for use under the oak tree where the picnic tables are. We invite you to hang out and spend some time. We are not in a rush, so take your time. Your tree will be ready for you to pick up when you’re ready.

Our motto is "We're in the family business; Come make a memory!"  Enjoy your time at Days of Creation.

Q2: What varieties of trees do you have?

Pictures and descriptions of each variety can be found on our Varieties & Pricing page. Fraser Firs are pre-cut and standing in water (see below for more information).

Q3: Do you have large trees?

Yes, many of our Murray X Leyland Cypress are above ten feet tall. Our tallest trees are about 12 feet. We do have some trees up to 18 feet, but they are limited so please call ahead.

Q4: Do you have Christmas wreaths? If so, how much are they?

Yes, we hand-make wreaths from fresh-cut material off of our trees. Prices start at $40 for a 20" non-decorated wreath. Larger sizes are also available. Please call 912-256-1167 and ask for Sheryl to get more details. We do accept advanced orders for pick-up, but we also invite you to watch the wreath-making process when you visit.

Q5: Are your trees pre-cut?

Some are, but most are trees that are standing in the field until you are ready for them. They are fresher that way. We do provide hand saws to cut down the trees, and we can help you out if you're having trouble.

Q6: Do you have any Fraser firs or spruce trees?

We do have Fraser Firs. We order them from a grower and have them brought to us as quickly as possible after they are cut. We then have them standing in fresh water within a few hours so that they an be as fresh as possible when you pick it.

Q7: How long will the trees last after being cut?

Many factors can affect how long a tree lasts, including the variety of tree and where it's placed. Keeping the tree watered is the most critical factor. Our best recommendation is to make a fresh cut, about 1/2 inch off the trunk, when you’re ready to put your tree in its stand. Then keep it hydrated! It will drink a lot of water the first 7 to 10 days.

Q8: Do you sell other Christmas items?

We do have a small selection of items you could purchase. We generally post about them on our Facebook page. We’ve expanded our offerings to include some toys, ornaments, mementos, etc. You’ll find them underneath the barn.

Q9: Do you sell food?

No, we don't sell food. However, you are welcome to bring your own food and use our picnic tables.

Q10: Can I bring my dog?

Yes, you may bring your dog if you keep the dog on a leash and clean up behind it.

 Q11: What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept cash, checks, credit and debit cards as payment.

Q12: Is there a fee for me to snap pictures of my own family?

ABSOLUTELY NOT, YOU CAN CLICK AWAY! For you taking personal pictures, there is no fee. We do charge a time-slot booking fee for professional photographers who are bringing clients, as described on our website. That fee is paid by the photographer. Our motto is "We're in the family business; come make a memory!" So, let's unofficially add "and preserve it with pictures" (...and post 'em and tag us).

 Q13: Are there bathrooms?

 There are! We built bathrooms a couple of years ago. They are handicap-accessible and one even has a shower for the people who want to come camp at the farm.

q14: Do you sell tree stands?

We do! We sell the single-spike tree stand at our farm. If you have that stand from prior years (it lasts a long, long time), or you buy it this year, we can drill the hole in your tree for you. Ask us about it — it’s our favorite!

q15: How do I get my tree home?

Good news! We will bale your tree in netting and then we can tie it to the top of your vehicle for you. If you have a truck or trailer, we still recommend securing it for your drive home. No one needs a car accident involving a Christmas tree as a holiday memory, you know?
