A genuinely kid-oriented half-day outing with an unusually wide species list, but call ahead since no 2026 pricing or season dates are posted.
Mytrysak is set up as more of a family outing than a quick tree stop. The cut-your-own field carries six species, including the harder-to-find Canaan and Concolor firs alongside the usual Fraser, Douglas fir, white pine, and Colorado blue spruce — a broader lineup than a lot of small operations bother stocking. Around that core, the farm layers in a tractor wagon ride, a train ride, a kids’ corner with crafts, and wreath-making classes, plus a Christmas shop for browsing while everyone thaws out. If your group includes kids under about ten, this is the kind of farm where the extras matter as much as the tree.
Cutting, shaking, and baling are included with your tree purchase, according to the farm’s own information — that’s a real, useful fact, not a guess. What the record doesn’t have is any 2026 pricing or season dates. When the farm’s site was checked, it was displaying an end-of-season message rather than current-year information, which is normal for a page that hasn’t been refreshed yet this early in the year, but it does mean you can’t budget from anything published here. Don’t assume last season’s rate holds, and don’t let a marketing page from a different year set your expectations.
This is listed as a cut-your-own farm, with the choose-and-cut field left unconfirmed in the record. Practically, that means you should plan to walk the field and do some of the work yourself rather than pointing at a tree and having staff handle it — though whether a saw is provided or you need to bring your own isn’t stated. If that detail matters to your trip (it does if you don’t own a saw), it’s worth a quick call before you drive out.
The farm lists daily hours of 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., but the tractor wagon rides that most visitors will want — especially with kids in tow — reportedly run on weekends. A weekday visit likely still gets you a tree, just without the ride out to the field or the train and crafts that make this a destination rather than an errand. If the extras are the reason you’re going, plan a Saturday or Sunday.
Six species, wreath-making classes, a kids’ corner, and a train ride add up to real time on site if you use them — figure closer to two hours than thirty minutes. That’s worth knowing going in, especially on a first Saturday-after-Thanksgiving visit, which is reliably the busiest day at almost any tree farm running a several-week season. Nothing in the record says Mytrysak gets crowded, but a farm built around this many family activities is one where arriving earlier in the day, rather than later, gives you a better shot at a relaxed visit and a tree that’s still in good shape after a busy weekend.
The single biggest unknown here is money. With no price posted, you’re relying on a phone call or an in-person conversation to find out what a tree runs, whether the free cutting/shaking/baling extends to every species, and whether there’s any per-person charge for the wagon or train rides beyond a tree purchase. None of that should stop you from visiting a farm that otherwise looks genuinely set up for a good family day — it just means treating the trip as “confirm, then go” rather than “show up and see.”
Weekend, since the tractor wagon rides that get you to the cut-your-own field reportedly run on weekends rather than every day.
1.5-2.5 hours if you use the wagon and train rides, kids' corner, and Christmas shop rather than just cutting a tree and leaving.
Not documented in the record. A farm running train rides, wreath-making classes, and a Christmas shop alongside wagon rides tends to draw family weekend traffic, but that's a reasonable inference, not a reported fact.
Skip if you need firm 2026 pricing or dates before you commit to the drive, since the farm's site was showing an end-of-season message with neither when we checked.
The farm has reportedly participated in a local YMCA Turkey Trot around Thanksgiving, so if you're already in Indiana County for a holiday-weekend run, a tree stop can follow.
No 2026 price list is published. The farm's website was showing an end-of-season message with no current pricing when last checked, so ask when you call or arrive.
The record doesn't specify whether Mytrysak provides saws or expects visitors to bring one — worth asking when you call to check hours.
Six: Fraser fir, Douglas fir, Canaan fir, Concolor fir, white pine, and Colorado blue spruce — a wider lineup than many smaller farms, including the less-common Canaan and Concolor firs.
Yes. Beyond the wagon ride to the field, there's a kids' corner with crafts, a train ride, and wreath-making classes, plus a Christmas shop to browse.
