A small, limited-supply choose-and-cut farm that has closed to walk-ins after a cutoff date in past seasons, so this is one to visit early rather than one to save for a mid-December weekend.
A Facebook post described trees at a flat $25 'any size,' but this may reflect a past season's clearance pricing rather than a standard current price -- not confirmed as current.
Clark Family Tree Farm shows up in state records simply as “Clark Tree Farm” and on Facebook as “Clark Family Tree Farm” — the same New Castle County operation, distinct from an unrelated Clark’s Christmas Tree Farm in Cochranville, Pennsylvania. Beyond that basic identification, this is a thin record, and the honest thing to do is say so rather than pad it.
The most useful thing in the research notes isn’t the price or the hours — it’s a warning that past Facebook posts have told customers the farm closes to walk-ins after a cutoff date around Nov 30, unless a tree was tagged in advance. That’s a small farm’s way of saying it doesn’t grow enough trees to serve everyone who might show up in December, which is exactly the kind of detail worth knowing before you build a mid-month Saturday around this specific farm. If Clark’s is on your list, the season opener is the safer bet, not a backup plan for later.
On pricing, a Facebook post described trees at a flat $25 regardless of size, which would make this one of the more affordable choose-and-cut options in the state guide if it still holds. But the record is upfront that this may reflect a past season’s clearance pricing rather than a standing price, so treat it as a data point to verify, not a number to plan a budget around.
The farm is choose-and-cut, meaning staff does the cutting once you’ve picked your tree, and it’s open weekends (Saturday and Sunday) with reported hours of 8:30am-5pm. Tree tagging is the one activity documented, which fits a no-frills operation rather than one built around a gift shop or hayride. Tree species, saw availability, and cash-only status are all undocumented for this specific farm — genuinely unknown rather than researched and omitted.
There’s no dedicated farm website, which isn’t unusual for a small operation but does mean Facebook is your best source for anything time-sensitive, including whether the farm has already reached its cutoff for the season by the time you’re ready to visit.
No 2026 season dates were found, but past seasons have closed to walk-in customers around Nov 30 unless a tree was pre-tagged — treat the season opener as your best shot rather than waiting.
Not documented, but a small farm with a single listed activity (tree tagging) and no gift shop or extras suggests a straightforward, relatively quick visit focused on the tree itself.
Not documented, but a farm that has warned about closing to walk-ins after a cutoff date is implicitly telling you its supply is limited, which points toward earlier weekends being busier relative to the farm's size than later ones.
Not documented in the record.

Skip Clark Family Tree Farm, or call first, if you're planning a visit in mid-to-late December, since the farm has previously closed to walk-in customers after a cutoff around Nov 30 unless the tree was tagged in advance.
Hundred Acre Farms is also in Smyrna, New Castle County, and offers clearer per-foot pricing if Clark's unconfirmed $25 figure gives you pause.
A Facebook post reported a flat $25 for any size tree, but the record flags this as possibly a past clearance price rather than confirmed current pricing. Ask before you go.
No — the record lists this as choose-and-cut, not cut-your-own, meaning staff cuts the tree you select.
It's a good idea. Past Facebook posts have warned the farm closes to walk-in customers after a cutoff around Nov 30 unless the tree was pre-tagged, suggesting limited inventory that can run out.
Not documented. No reliable source listed specific species for this particular Clark farm, so it's left unconfirmed rather than guessed.
2026 dates had not been published when we last checked. In past seasons it has run: Saturday and Sunday. Check with the farm before driving out.
Trees start at $25. A Facebook post described trees at a flat $25 'any size,' but this may reflect a past season's clearance pricing rather than a standard current price -- not confirmed as current.
Yes. It's choose-and-cut (staff cuts it for you).
