A Canaan fir farm near a well-known Woodford County landmark with a tagging system that sounds convenient, but the only schedule we could find is three years old — call before you drive out.
Duckworth Family Farm, doing business as The Barn at Duckworth Farm, grows Canaan fir on a Woodford County property about half a mile off US 60, near the well-known Kentucky Castle landmark. That’s genuinely useful for orientation if you’re not familiar with the area, but almost everything else about this listing comes with an asterisk.
The most interesting thing in the record is a described tagging system: customers reportedly tag and pay for a tree in advance, then come back after Thanksgiving to pick it up, with no reservation needed for a standard visit. If accurate, that’s a real convenience — it means you don’t have to gamble on availability during the busiest weeks of the season. The catch is that this description doesn’t come from the farm’s own current materials, so treat it as a system the farm has used before, not a guaranteed current-season offering, until you confirm it directly.
Here’s the honest gap: the most detailed hours available — Saturday 11am to 5pm, Sunday 1pm to 5pm — were explicitly tied to a 2023 season. That’s not a research shortcut; it’s genuinely the most recent information that could be found. Three years is enough time for a small farm’s hours, days, or even operating status to change, so don’t build a trip around those specific times without calling first or checking the farm’s Facebook page (BarnatDuckworthFarm) for anything more current.
One source, not the farm’s own site, mentioned cash, check, or Venmo as accepted payment methods. That’s plausible for a small operation like this, but it wasn’t confirmed independently, so it’s worth a quick question when you call rather than an assumption you carry into the visit.
One point in the farm’s favor: the record describes no reservation requirement for regular visits, which — if still true — means you can plan a more spontaneous trip than farms like Barker’s in Lexington that require booking ahead. Just pair that flexibility with a phone call to confirm the farm is actually open on the day you show up.
Given how much of the record is either stale or unconfirmed, the honest use of this page is as a starting point for a phone call, not a finalized plan. If Canaan fir specifically is what draws you, or the tagging system sounds appealing, call 859-753-7082 and ask directly about this season’s hours, pricing, and whether the tag-and-pickup option is still running before you commit a Saturday to the drive.
Unknown for the current season. The only hours found (Saturday 11am–5pm, Sunday 1pm–5pm) were tied to a 2023 season and may no longer be accurate.
