A cut-your-own or pre-cut farm with staff help available for cutting and loading and free baling, though a single customer's mention of a $100 tree is the only pricing data found -- and it shouldn't be trusted as current.
One customer review referenced a $100 price point, but no official pricing list was found.
Hirt Tree Farm, in Westminster, offers a hybrid model that’s worth understanding up front: you can cut your own tree, or ask staff to handle the cutting and loading for you. That flexibility isn’t universal across farms in this research – some are strictly self-service, others strictly pre-cut – so Hirt’s willingness to meet you wherever your comfort level is stands out as a genuine convenience, particularly for visitors who like the idea of a fresh tree but aren’t confident handling a saw.
This is a case where the honesty standard for this write-up matters directly. The only dollar figure found anywhere in the research for this farm came from a single customer review mentioning a $100 tree. That is one person’s account of one tree at some point in the past – not an official price list, not a range confirmed by the farm, and not something that should shape your budget expectations. It’s mentioned here only because it’s the one number that exists in the record, and the honest thing to do with it is flag it as unreliable rather than pretend it’s a current price or leave it out entirely as if no information existed at all. Go in prepared to ask the actual current price on arrival.
Four species are available: Douglas fir, Canaan fir, Eastern white pine, and Colorado blue spruce. That’s a reasonable spread across firs, a pine, and a spruce, giving you some genuine choice in texture and shape rather than a single-species farm.
Saws are provided, and baling is free, per the record – two costs you don’t need to plan around separately. Staff will also help with cutting and loading if you ask, which is a distinct offering from farms that leave the entire process, including hauling the tree back to your car, up to you. Beyond trees, the farm sells homemade wreaths, swags, and holly bundles, giving you a way to round out holiday decor in the same visit.
The 2025 season ran daily from November 28 through December 21, 9am to 4pm, or until supplies ran out – whichever came first. That “while supplies last” language is worth taking seriously if you’re hoping to visit later in the season; a farm that sells out doesn’t necessarily post an early closure notice in advance, so don’t assume the full window will still have good trees available if you wait until close to December 21 to go. As with several other farms in this batch, these are 2025-specific calendar dates rather than a stated rule, so reconfirm before you plan a 2026 visit around this exact schedule.
Not confirmed for 2026. The 2025 season ran November 28-December 21 (or while supplies last), daily, 9am-4pm.
Not documented directly, but with staff cutting/loading help available, this shouldn't require significant physical effort even if you're not comfortable handling a saw yourself.
Not documented in the record.
Not described in the record.
Staff are available to help with cutting and loading if requested, per the record, which eases the physical demand compared to a fully self-service cut-your-own farm.
Skip if you need confirmed current pricing before visiting, since the only figure found in this research was a single customer review mentioning $100 -- not an official price list.
Not specified in the record.
No official price list was found. A single customer review mentioned a $100 tree, but this is not confirmed as current or representative pricing -- treat it as one data point, not a reliable estimate, and confirm the actual price on arrival.
No. The farm offers both cut-your-own and pre-cut trees, and staff can help with cutting and loading if you'd rather not do it yourself.
