News from the Farm

Hello from the Weir Family! We hope all of our customers had an excellent Christmas season and we are glad that Spring has arrived! We were lucky enough to travel to the Dominican Republic this past March for a long anticipated vacation - it was an early celebration of our 20th wedding anniversary and Jay's 50th birthday. Seventeen of our family members and friends travelled with us and a great time was had by all!

Last Christmas was very successful and we thank all our new and returning customers for their loyalty and business. It was a somewhat difficult season, emotionally, in that we made the hard decision to discontinue offering our Christmas trees and wreaths via mail order after twenty-seven seasons. The two main reasons for our decision were the cost of shipping and the shortage of labor. All of our mail order customers were notified with a post card, but we certainly missed all the interactions we used to have with them during the course of the season. It is hard to tell what the future holds, but for now we will still not offer mail order trees and wreaths. All sales of trees and wreaths will continue to be wholesale or retail here at the farm.

Jay and three of our full time workers logged all winter. In an effort to diversify the farm, we have been doing substantially more logging, lot clearing, driveway and septic installation and private road maintenance. Our schedule for these types of projects fills up fast, but always feel free to call for our availability. We offer a dependable service that produces top quality results.

Currently, we are right in the thick of our nursery season. This will be the largest nursery harvest in the history of Weir Tree Farms! We have an excellent crew and they have been hard at work in all types of weather. We also welcomed back three of our H2A migrant workers from South Africa. We picked up Elex, JJ, and Dylan from the airport on April 24th and they will be staying with us until the third week of November. The H2A program has been extremely beneficial to our farm and we are glad to have them back. We have been plagued with an unseasonable amount of rain which has slowed the digging of the transplants, but we continue to press on. Several customers have already placed orders for the 2024 season. We do not set our nursery prices until September, but we do accept orders early. Once prices are set, we ask that a 30% deposit be sent to confirm the order.

In terms of wholesale Christmas trees, we are sold out for the 2023 Christmas season. We anticipate that we will have a larger harvest in 2024 and at that point we will start taking on new customer accounts. We appreciate all the new inquiries for wholesale Christmas trees!

Our boys, Jackson and Cooper, are now sixteen and thirteen years old - the joys of having two teenagers! Jackson recently got his license and all of his hard work paid off when he was able to purchase his first (new to him) vehicle. He is a busy boy who plays three Varsity sports, raises chickens, and has two part time jobs. Cooper also plays three sports and has started working at the farm this past year. When he is not playing sports or working, he can be found on his snowmobile or four wheeler. He is mechanically inclined and loves figuring out how things work. Our two boys make us proud every day! As always, feel free to e-mail, call or visit. We hope to hear from you all very soon!
