A 50+ year Franklin County nursery selling Christmas trees at roughly $5 per foot alongside its year-round landscape-tree business, but the exact cut-your-own season window wasn't confirmed, so treat the posted hours as general nursery hours, not a Christmas-specific schedule.
$5 per foot, per a source describing recent-year pricing; not confirmed for 2026.
McClure’s Tree Nursery has been in business since 1969, started by Howell and Linda McClure, and today runs as a 50-plus acre operation in Franklin County that’s primarily a year-round landscape nursery — selling balled-and-burlapped evergreens and hardwoods — with pre-cut and cut-your-own Christmas trees as one seasonal offering layered on top of that core business.
One genuinely useful number survived research here: a source describing recent-year pricing put Christmas trees at roughly $5 per foot. That’s simple arithmetic you can actually use — a 6-foot tree in that range would run around $30, an 8-foot tree around $40 — though it’s worth being clear that this figure isn’t confirmed as the current 2026 rate, just a recent-year reference point. Compared to some farms in this batch with tiered or flat pricing, a straightforward per-foot rate at least gives you a way to estimate cost before you commit to a specific tree size.
Here’s the detail that matters most for planning a visit: the operating hours found for this nursery — weekdays 10 am to 5 pm, weekends 9 am to 5 pm, running through December 24th and closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas — describe the nursery’s general, year-round operating season for its landscape-tree business, not a confirmed Christmas-tree-specific schedule. Because McClure’s operates continuously from spring through Christmas Eve for its main nursery business, it’s entirely possible that cut-your-own Christmas trees aren’t available across that entire window, even though the nursery itself is open. Attempting to reach the farm’s dedicated Christmas-tree webpage directly during this research failed with a certificate error, which meant tree species and any Christmas-specific timing couldn’t be independently confirmed from the primary source. The responsible move here is to call ahead — (207) 265-4931, and ask for Adam directly, per some listings — and confirm specifically when cut-your-own trees become available this season, rather than assuming any day within the general nursery hours works.
Because McClure’s core business isn’t seasonal Christmas tree sales but year-round nursery stock, it’s reasonable to expect more operational consistency than a pop-up tree lot that exists for six weeks a year and then vanishes. If your household also needs a landscape tree or shrub, this is a place that can serve both needs in one stop, which isn’t true of most single-purpose Christmas tree farms in this list.
McClure’s offers a useful, calculable per-foot price and over 50 years of operating history, but the exact window for cutting a Christmas tree specifically wasn’t confirmed and shouldn’t be assumed to match the nursery’s broader spring-through-Christmas-Eve hours. Call ahead to nail down the actual cutting season before planning a trip to Kingfield.
The nursery's general season is described as running through December 24th, closed Thanksgiving and Christmas, with weekday hours 10 am-5 pm and weekend hours 9 am-5 pm. This describes the nursery's overall operating season, which runs from spring through Christmas Eve for its landscape-tree business — a distinct, shorter Christmas-tree-only cutting window was not separately confirmed, so call ahead to ask specifically when cut-your-own Christmas trees become available.

Skip McClure's if you're assuming these hours are a Christmas-tree-specific schedule, since they describe the nursery's general operating season rather than a confirmed cut-your-own tree window, and skip it if you need confirmed 2026 pricing locked in, since $5/foot is not confirmed as current.
No specific nearby-farm pairing is available in this record.
Roughly $5 per foot, per a source describing recent-year pricing. This is not confirmed as current for 2026, so treat it as a reference point.
Not specifically confirmed. The nursery's general operating hours run through December 24th (closed Thanksgiving and Christmas), but that describes its year-round landscape-tree business, not a confirmed Christmas-tree-specific cutting window. Call (207) 265-4931 to ask directly.
