A compact, Friday-through-Sunday choose-and-cut farm that closes based on how much of the field has been harvested rather than a fixed date, so late-season availability is genuinely unpredictable.
Bear’s Christmas Tree Farm in Blackstone offers choose-and-cut Fraser, Balsam, and Canaan fir along with Blue spruce, and separately sells fresh-cut premium Fraser trees up to 12 feet for anyone needing a tree larger than a typical living room ceiling allows. It’s a compact operation, open Friday through Sunday, 9am through dusk, rather than running a full weekly schedule.
This is the single most important thing to understand before planning a Bear’s visit: the farm doesn’t close on a fixed calendar date. Instead, according to its own description, it closes “when the fields reach harvest capacity,” meaning once enough trees have been cut, the season ends regardless of what the calendar says. That’s meaningfully different from farms with a stated closing date like December 24, because it means the actual end of the season is unpredictable and depends entirely on how quickly other visitors are buying trees. If you wait until mid-December assuming the farm will still be open, you’re taking on real risk that isn’t present at farms with fixed schedules.
The farm’s pattern is to open the day after Thanksgiving, placing the 2026 opening at Friday, November 27. From there, it’s open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday only, 9am through dusk, a tighter schedule than farms open every day of the week. Combined with the harvest-capacity closing rule, this points toward visiting earlier rather than later if you want real choice.
Homemade cookies and warm apple cider are offered while you search the field, a simple but welcome touch. Beyond that, the record doesn’t list hayrides, bonfires, or other larger attractions, consistent with this being a straightforward, tree-focused operation rather than a full agritourism destination.
No pricing appears anywhere in the sources reviewed for this farm. That’s true for a number of farms in this batch, but it’s worth restating plainly here since the twelve-foot premium Fraser option in particular is the kind of purchase where knowing the cost in advance really matters. Call 774-280-6180 before you go.
Bear’s offers real variety, including a notable option for large trees, but the unusual harvest-based closing rule means this is a farm where timing your visit early genuinely matters more than at most others in this directory. Treat any visit after the first couple of weeks in December as a gamble on availability rather than a sure thing.
Earlier in the season is safer here, since the farm closes 'when the fields reach harvest capacity' rather than on a set calendar date. Opening is Friday, November 27, 2026, following the farm's day-after-Thanksgiving pattern.
Not documented specifically, but with a compact Friday-Sunday schedule and no large-scale attractions listed beyond cookies and cider, this reads as a more straightforward, shorter visit than farms built around hayrides or events.
Not documented directly, but a Friday-through-Sunday-only schedule concentrates demand into fewer days than farms open all week.

Skip a late-December trip here without calling first, since the farm closes based on field harvest capacity rather than a fixed date, meaning it could sell out of good trees before the calendar suggests the season is over.
