Our take

Jan’s presents as a small, family-owned operation built around a genuine gift shop rather than a bare cutting field - that combination, plus a bonfire, kettle corn, and a straw pile play area for kids, gives it a cozier feel than some of the larger commercial farms in this batch. The honest problem with this record is how little of it could be independently confirmed: a direct attempt to load the farm’s own website during research returned an access error, so most of what’s here comes from search summaries and third-party listings rather than the farm’s current, authoritative source.

What the record can and can’t tell you

Tree species are documented - Colorado blue spruce, balsam fir, and Norway pine - giving you a real sense of what’s growing in the fields even without pricing to go with it. Season dates are murkier: one listing mentioned a window of roughly November 23 through December 24, but it didn’t clearly state which year that referred to, and it’s entirely possible it describes a past season rather than 2026. Minnesota Grown’s own listing for the farm specifically advises checking the farm’s site or calling ahead for exact event days and hours before Thanksgiving weekend, which is a reasonable signal that even Minnesota Grown considers this farm’s schedule variable enough to need a direct check.

No phone number found, no pricing found

Two real gaps stand out. First, no phone number for the farm turned up in this research, which makes “call ahead” - the standard advice for a farm with unconfirmed hours - harder to act on than it should be. Second, there’s no pricing information anywhere in the sources reviewed, so this page genuinely cannot tell you what a tree will cost, and per the honesty standard this page holds itself to, no dollar figure appears anywhere in this write-up as a result.

What to actually do

Given the gaps, the most useful move is to search for Jan’s Christmas Trees’ current contact information or social media presence closer to the season, confirm hours and pricing directly, and treat anything found here as a starting point rather than a plan. If that search comes up empty or you’d rather not gamble a special trip, B&J Evergreen Christmas Trees is in the same city of Clear Lake and has a considerably more documented record, including confirmed activities, tree varieties, and a business history spanning over 40 years.

The bottom line

Jan’s may well be a pleasant, low-key stop, but this record can’t responsibly promise you a season window, a price, or even a working phone number - and inventing any of those to make the page feel more complete would be exactly the kind of padding that undermines trust in a directory like this one.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

Not documented with confidence. The farm's own hours note event-day exceptions, so check its site or the Minnesota Grown listing close to your visit rather than relying on a single fixed window.

How long to budget

Not documented directly, but a gift shop, bonfire, kettle corn stand, and a straw pile play area suggest budgeting more than a fast cut-and-go, especially with kids along.

Crowds

Not documented in the record.

Parking

Not documented in the record.

Strollers and accessibility

Not documented in the record.

What to bring

  • A confirmed phone number or contact method found through Minnesota Grown or a current search, since none is documented here
  • Cash or card - not documented which the farm accepts
  • Layers if you plan to linger at the bonfire rather than just cut and leave

How to spend less here

  • No pricing is published for this farm at all, so ask directly when you arrive, or call ahead if you can find a working number, rather than assuming a cost
  • Treat the gift shop and kettle corn as separate small purchases on top of the tree itself, as is typical at most tree farms, rather than included extras

Who it suits

Good for

  • kids who'll enjoy the straw pile play area
  • visitors who want to browse an attached gift shop, not just cut a tree
  • anyone happy to treat this as a cozy small-farm stop rather than a big-production outing

Skip it if

Skip planning firmly around this farm until you've called ahead, since neither a phone number nor confirmed 2026 season dates or pricing were found, and a direct attempt to load the farm's own website returned an access error during research.

Worth pairing with

Located in Clear Lake, Sherburne County, in the same town as B&J Evergreen Christmas Trees, which has considerably more documented detail and could serve as a fallback or a second stop.
