Though the choose and cut fields at Elgin Christmas Tree Farm have closed for the year, you can still visit to purchase pre-cut trees, but get there quickly as the last day this farm will be open for 2017 will be Friday, December 15. The farm will only be open from 10 to 2 each day this week, so hurry over to get your tree while they last.

If you cannot get out of the house, why not have your tree delivered to you? You can by ordering online from Brungot Farms, located north of Austin, or you can visit the lot location for the cut tree sales at the Twin Lakes YMCA in Cedar Park. Though many Christmas tree farms in Texas grow the trees here, the hot weather is not ideal for these evergreens. Brungot Farms does things a little differently. It acquires its trees from North Carolina. From there, the trees are freshly cut and treated to maintain their aroma and longevity.
