Less a tree lot than an event venue -- wreath workshops, porch pot classes, and a Reindeer Day with live reindeer -- but exact dates are only announced via Facebook each year and no pricing is published.
No pricing published online; not confirmed directly with the farm.
Katalari Farms, in Loup City, is doing something different from most entries in this research: it isn’t primarily a tree lot with some extras bolted on, it reads more like an event venue that happens to sell Christmas trees. Alongside choose-and-cut trees, the farm’s own site describes wreath-making workshops taught by a Nebraska Master Florist, porch pot workshops, wreath parties, and a Reindeer Day event featuring Santa, Mrs. Claus, and live reindeer. That’s a genuinely more built-out visitor experience than the family tree lots that make up most of this batch, and it’s worth choosing this farm specifically if that kind of programming — not just a tree — is what you’re after.
Species on offer include Fraser Fir, Canaan Fir, Concolor Fir, Scotch Pine, Douglas Pine, Eastern Red Pine, and Norway Spruce, a wide seven-item list. Both choose-and-cut and precut/retail trees are mentioned in the sources, so as with a few other farms in this research, it’s worth asking on arrival which kind of tree you’re being offered.
Most farms in this batch either publish specific dates or default to a general “day after Thanksgiving” rule. Katalari Farms does something in between: its own site says it opens Black Friday weekend, but explicitly tells visitors to “keep an eye out on Facebook for dates” rather than committing to a printed calendar. That’s a real, farm-stated practice, not a research gap — the farm itself is telling you where to look. Applying the Black Friday pattern gives a reasonable estimate of Nov 27, 2026 for the opening, but because the farm’s own instruction is to check Facebook, that’s genuinely the more reliable source close to the season than any date given here or found through a general search.
One related caution: a note about booking wreath parties referenced the 2024 season specifically and didn’t appear to have been updated for 2025 or 2026 at the time this was researched. If you’re hoping to book a wreath party or workshop, confirm the current process and dates directly with the farm rather than assuming last year’s booking details still apply.
The wreath-making workshops being taught by a Nebraska Master Florist is a specific, credentialed detail that stands out — it signals actual expertise behind the workshop rather than a generic craft activity. The Reindeer Day event, with live reindeer alongside Santa and Mrs. Claus, is similarly a specific, named draw rather than a vague “holiday activities” description. Both are the kind of detail that makes this farm worth a special trip for families or gift-workshop-minded visitors, separate from whether you need a tree at all.
No pricing was found published anywhere for trees, workshops, or event admission. That’s a real gap across the board here — call the farm directly or check its site and Facebook page for current rates before planning a budget around any part of a visit.
Katalari Farms offers a genuinely distinctive visit — real workshops with a credentialed instructor and a named reindeer event, not just a tree lot — but planning around it means relying on the farm’s Facebook page for actual dates and calling ahead for any pricing, since neither is published in a fixed, reliable form.
Reported to open Black Friday weekend (Nov 27, 2026), per the farm's own site, which also directs visitors to 'keep an eye out on Facebook for dates' rather than publishing a fixed calendar. No closing date is stated. Checking the farm's Facebook page close to Thanksgiving is the most reliable way to plan, since the site itself defers to that channel.
Not stated directly, but a farm running wreath-making workshops, porch pot workshops, wreath parties, and a dedicated Reindeer Day event suggests visits here can run longer than a simple in-and-out tree pickup, especially if you're attending a workshop or event.
Not stated directly, but a farm hosting a named event (Reindeer Day with Santa, Mrs. Claus, and live reindeer) alongside workshops likely draws heavier turnout on those specific event dates than on an ordinary weekend.

Skip Katalari Farms if you want a simple, quick tree pickup without checking a Facebook page for current dates, since the farm's own site explicitly defers scheduling details to that channel rather than publishing a fixed calendar.
No specific nearby-farm comparison is available in this record.
No. Beyond choose-and-cut trees, the record describes it functioning as an event venue with wreath-making workshops, porch pot workshops, wreath parties, and a Reindeer Day featuring Santa, Mrs. Claus, and live reindeer.
The farm's own site says it opens Black Friday weekend but tells visitors to watch its Facebook page for exact dates rather than publishing a fixed calendar, so Nov 27, 2026 is a reasonable estimate rather than a confirmed date.
No pricing was found published anywhere for either trees or the workshops/events. Call the farm or check its site and Facebook page directly.
