Our take

Crowell’s Land of Christmas has one operating detail that will change how you plan a visit more than almost anything else: it is closed Monday through Wednesday for the entire season. That leaves a four-day window, Thursday through Sunday, and even within that window the hours are short, roughly 12:30 to 4:30 on weekdays and a longer 10 to 4:30 stretch on Saturday. If you are used to farms open daily through December, build this schedule into your plan before you drive out.

How the cutting actually works

This is a choose-and-cut operation in the specific sense of you choose, they cut. The farm’s own site describes customers picking a tree and staff doing the cutting, not a bring-your-own-saw setup. Seven tree varieties are offered in heights up to 24 feet, a real range if you are shopping for anything from a tabletop tree to a two-story living room centerpiece. The farm also sells precut trees for anyone who would rather skip the field entirely, and, more unusually, living, balled trees that can be planted after the holidays instead of thrown out. That is worth considering if you want a tree that outlives the season.

What it costs, and what’s missing

No base price is published anywhere checked, which means there is no honest dollar figure to give you for a tree here. What is confirmed is that the farm’s website offers discount coupons – check for one before you go, since it is a real, no-cost step that could lower whatever the eventual price turns out to be. Beyond the tree itself, add-ons include a tractor-pulled hayride, hot cocoa, cookies, and candy canes, all described as part of the farm’s own visit rather than optional guesses.

Payment: bring cash or a check

The record’s payment notes describe cash or check as the accepted methods, with no mention of card payment anywhere in the sources checked. If you are used to tapping a card at farm stands, do not assume that works here. Bring cash or your checkbook as a backup.

Crowds and timing

With only four open days a week and shorter weekday hours, the open days, especially the longer Saturday hours, are likely to see more traffic than farms with a full daily schedule to spread visitors across. If the first Saturday after Thanksgiving falls within this farm’s season (and per the resolved 2026-11-27 start date, it likely does), expect that to be the single busiest day the farm sees all year. A weekday afternoon, if your schedule allows a Thursday or Friday visit, is a safer bet for a calmer trip.

Groups and the season window

The site also mentions accommodations for group or bulk visits, worth a call ahead if you are coordinating a class trip, church group, or extended family outing rather than a single-family stop. Keep in mind that the season dates here, November 27 through December 24, are a resolved estimate built from the farm’s own relative description, not a 2026-specific date the farm itself has published yet. It is a reasonable estimate, but still worth confirming by phone if your visit depends on a specific weekend near the edges of that window.

Bottom line

Crowell’s offers real variety, cut trees, precut trees, and living trees, plus family extras like a hayride and cocoa, but the four-day-a-week schedule and unpublished pricing mean you should check the calendar and call ahead rather than assuming this farm runs like a typical daily-open lot.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

The season is estimated to run 2026-11-27 through 2026-12-24, resolved from the farm's own relative description of running Thanksgiving weekend through Christmas Eve rather than a published 2026-specific date. Within the open days (Thursday through Sunday), a weekday afternoon is likely calmer than the longer Saturday hours.

How long to budget

Not stated directly, but with seven varieties up to 24 feet, precut and living-tree options, plus a hayride and cocoa stand, expect more than a quick in-and-out cutting stop if you plan to use the extras.

Crowds

Not stated directly, but with only four open days a week and longer hours on Saturday than the other three, Saturday -- especially the first one after Thanksgiving -- is the day most likely to draw the heaviest traffic.

What to bring

  • Cash or a check -- the record describes payment as cash or check with no card mentioned
  • No saw needed, since staff does the cutting once you choose a tree
  • A plan built around the farm's four open days a week, since it is closed Monday through Wednesday all season

How to spend less here

  • No base price is published anywhere checked, so there is no dollar figure to offer, but the farm's own website is confirmed to offer discount coupons -- check for one before you go
  • If you want a tree that lasts beyond the season, ask about the living, balled trees, which can be planted afterward instead of discarded

Who it suits

Good for

  • Families who want staff to cut the tree while they browse rather than bringing their own saw
  • Anyone considering a living, balled tree that can be planted after the holidays instead of thrown out
  • Groups or larger visits, since the site mentions accommodations for bulk visits

Skip it if

Skip this farm if your schedule only allows a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday visit, since it is closed those three days all season, or if you specifically want to cut your own tree with your own saw rather than have staff cut it for you.
