Roberts grows all six of its own species on-site and skips Fraser Fir on purpose, noting it doesn't grow well in Indiana -- a rare bit of honesty compared to farms that truck Fraser Fir in, backed up by saws provided, a heated cabin, and Santa visits.
Roberts Tree Farm, in Seymour in Jackson County, does something worth calling out specifically: it grows all six of its own tree species on-site, Scotch Pine, White Pine, Austrian Pine, Blue Spruce, Norway Spruce, and Canaan Fir, and one source describing the farm explicitly notes that Fraser Fir isn’t offered because it “cannot be grown in Indiana.” That’s a genuinely useful, honest detail. Plenty of Indiana farms sell Fraser Fir anyway by trucking it in from Michigan, North Carolina, or elsewhere, which isn’t dishonest on its own, but Roberts choosing to stick with what actually grows on its own land, and saying so, is worth noting as a point of transparency.
Saws are provided on-site, meaning you don’t need to bring your own tools if you want to cut your own tree. Visitors can walk the fields directly or take a hayride out to them, and if you’d rather not cut the tree yourself at all, staff will cut and bale it for you. That’s three distinct ways to get your tree, self-cut with a provided saw, self-cut after a hayride out, or fully staff-handled, giving you real flexibility depending on your group’s preferences and abilities.
A heated log cabin offers free hot cider and treats while you’re there, a genuinely nice touch for a cold late-November or December visit. Santa visits are also part of the season, which matters if you have young kids who’d enjoy that on top of the tree-cutting itself. Wreaths and greenery are available for sale as well, for anyone rounding out their holiday shopping.
The season is confirmed to start November 27, 2026, the day after Thanksgiving, with hours running Friday through Sunday, noon until dark. That’s a firm three-day-a-week window rather than daily access, worth building into your plans if you were hoping for a weekday visit. No closing date was found in the sources checked, which means there’s real uncertainty about how late into December the farm stays open, or how much inventory will be left by then. Given that popular cut-your-own farms can run out of good trees in desirable sizes well before the season officially ends, calling ahead late in the season is a genuinely useful precaution here specifically because no end date is known.
Tree pricing, cash-only status, and a hard closing date weren’t found. A direct attempt to fetch the farm’s own website during this research didn’t return content, so what’s known comes from secondhand listings rather than the farm’s current posting.
Roberts offers real flexibility in how you get your tree, genuine honesty about what it does and doesn’t grow, and family-friendly extras like Santa and a warm cabin. The Friday-Sunday-only schedule and unknown closing date are the two things to plan around.
Hours run Friday-Sunday, noon until dark, starting the day after Thanksgiving (November 27, 2026). No closing date was found, so calling ahead late in the season to check remaining inventory is worth doing.
An hour or more if you take the hayride, warm up in the log cabin, and see Santa; less for a direct cut with a provided saw.
Not specified directly, but Friday-Sunday-only hours starting the day after Thanksgiving suggest the farm concentrates its open days around the traditional peak weekend window rather than spreading traffic across weekdays.
Not specified in available sources.
A hayride is available in addition to walking the fields, and staff will cut and bale a tree for you if you'd rather not cut it yourself.
