One of the oldest, most established farms in this batch — running since 1941 — with an unusually wide species list and rare weekday access, though it's explicitly local-customers-only rather than a big commercial operation.
King’s Trees has a genuine claim to history that few farms in this directory can match: continuously operated since 1941, when William King’s father started it, with the first tree actually sold in 1947, according to a WBOY.com feature on the farm’s Preston County operation. That’s more than 80 years of the same family selling trees, and the same coverage notes something else worth knowing — this is explicitly a local-customers-only business that doesn’t sell wholesale, which tells you something about the kind of operation you’re visiting: a community fixture rather than a commercial supplier scaling up for volume.
Where many small farms in this directory specialize in one or two species, King’s Trees grows eight: Fraser, Canaan, and Concolor fir, Blue and Norway spruce, and White, Scotch, and Red pine. That’s real variety for a family-run operation, and it means visitors with a specific species preference — or those who simply want to compare a few types in person before deciding — have more to work with here than at most stops on this list.
Most farms in this batch operate weekends only, or weekends plus a narrow weekday slot reserved for calling ahead. King’s Trees is more straightforward about it: Monday through Friday, noon to 4:30 PM, is a standing part of the schedule, not something you need to arrange specially. That said, it’s a narrow window — four and a half hours in the middle of the day — so if you’re coming from work, the math may not favor a weekday trip unless you can leave early. Weekends give more room: Saturday from 8 AM until dark, and Sunday from 11 AM until dark, both considerably longer stretches. Appointments are also offered for other times, useful if none of the standard hours line up with your schedule.
Wreaths, boughs, and candy canes are sold alongside the trees, and a picnic area gives families a reason to linger rather than cut and leave immediately. Saws are provided free, per the record, covering one basic cost that some farms charge for separately. What isn’t available anywhere in the sources reviewed is a price — no starting figure, no note, nothing to build a budget around beyond a phone call. Given the honesty standard this page follows, that gap gets stated plainly rather than filled with a guess: call 304-290-1329 if the cost matters to your planning, since nothing published answers that question for you.
The season is expected to run Thanksgiving Day (Nov 26, 2026) through Christmas Eve (Dec 24, 2026), based on the printed dates in the 2025 seasonal booklet mapped onto this year’s calendar. That’s one of the longer windows in this directory, if it holds — but like several other entries here, it reflects last year’s schedule rather than a confirmed 2026 update, so treat it as a strong likelihood rather than a locked-in date.
Weekends give the most time — Saturday from 8 AM or Sunday from 11 AM, both until dark — though Mon-Fri noon-4:30 PM is a genuine option most farms in this batch don't offer, and appointments are available outside those hours.
Not documented, but eight species to choose among suggests more browsing time than a farm with one or two options.
Not documented, though a farm this established with weekday hours available may spread visitors out more evenly across the week than weekend-only operations in this directory — a reasonable inference, not a confirmed fact.
Not documented in the record.
Not documented. Expect a working farm field rather than a paved, accessible lot, as with most choose-and-cut operations in this directory.
Skip it if you're hoping to buy in bulk or wholesale, since press coverage explicitly describes this as a local-customers-only operation that doesn't sell wholesale, or if you need more than the narrow noon-4:30 PM weekday window.
Not documented in this record; other Preston County or Mountaineer Country farms in this directory may be worth pairing with a visit here.
