If you’ve put off decorating to find a Griswold-worthy fir, we’re here to help. We’ve rounded up seven spots to snag a tree that will leave your family members saying, “She’s a beaut, Clark.”

🌲 Cut your own

Update: These farms are sold out for the 2024 season.

Barker’s Christmas Tree Farm, 1500 Deerhaven Ln. | While reservations are currently full for November, check back often for potential openings. If you score a spot, you can choose from White Pines, Canaan Firs, and Balled + Burlap Norway Spruces. Pro tip: Cash or check only.

Nieman’s Christmas Tree Farm, 5100 Sulphur Ln. | Fill your home with the scent of fresh pine from one of Kentucky’s only grower of Frasier firs in the state. Trees on this family owned farm range from six to 12+ft and White Pine, White Fir, and Blue Spruce are also available. Cut your own with tools provided or simply select and let the friendly staff do the heavy lifting...literally. Pro tip: Cash or check only.

🌲 Pre-cut + ready to get lit

Wilson Plant Co. | With two locations — one in Frankfort + one in Lexington — you can get that fresh fir scent all season long. Bonus: mark your calendars for Santa Clause + Reindeer Experience coming to the Frankfort greenhouse on Saturday, Dec. 14 and Sunday, Dec. 15.

King’s Garden Center | The greenhouse turns into a winter wonderland with freshly cut Christmas tree varieties including Fraser, Grand, and Concolor firs. Wow your guests with other live festive greenery + decor like wreaths, centerpieces, and garland. Don’t forget to bring the kiddos to see trainset.

🌲 Local recommendations

  • Reader Heather R. said that although Tractor Supply is not flashy, the prices are fair + you can exchange it if it’s not up to par.
  • Sarah B. and Lauren A. both recommend checking out the parking lot by Southland Christian Church on Richmond Road.
