What is a RENTED Christmas tree?

It is our approach to a more sustainable Christmas! We love the concept and hope you will too. We grow our rent a Christmas trees in pots from small saplings, therefore they are not very big when we first rent them out, in fact over their life in a pot they are unlikely to exceed 5 foot. The tree will stay with you over Christmas (no longer than 3 weeks) ensuring it is well watered and looked after and then returned to the farm in the first week of January. We like the idea of a Christmas tree growing up with the family, maybe being given a name and therefore allow the same tree to be rented back to its family each year. The tree should have a life of around 5 years in the pots at which point they will be planted in the ground, either in our Christmas tree field for experiences held at the farm or in your own garden!

How does it work?

1. After booking visit the farm shop during opening hours and collect a tag for your tree.

2. Head to the field and select your tree - the sooner the more choice you will have!

3. Return and visit your tree as often as you like before collecting from the farm shop during opening hours at the end of November/December. (We will lift and net your tree on the Monday of the week you plan to collect).

Prices:

Rented trees up to 3 foot £15

Rented trees over 3 foot £20

Your deposit is refunded should the tree be returned in the first week of January and remains healthy in our field by the end of January.

Alternatively we can retain your deposit and you can have the same tree back the following year with the rental charge only required.

If you live in a CM2 postcode and would like your tree delivered please discuss this with a staff member when visiting the farm shop.
