Alabama Christmas tree farm locations and hours for 2025

Alabama has an abundance of Christmas tree farms, but the landscape has changed a lot over the past decade. While some longtime tree farms have closed, several new farms have sprouted up from one end of the state to the other.

The Advertiser has combed through listings from the Southern Christmas Tree Association, Alabama Farmers Federation and social media to find a comprehensive list of Alabama tree farms that are active for the 2025 season.

Most, if not all, of these listings are choose-and-cut sites where owners tag a tree and then cut it down by hand. Most sites provide handsaws for this. Many sites also offer a variety of pre-cut trees that don’t grow in Alabama.

Season opening dates vary, but most farms will start serving guests somewhere between the weekend before Thanksgiving and the weekend after.

We’re starting it off our list with the tree farms that are closest to Montgomery:
