The only Uinta Basin commercial tree seller found in this research, but almost nothing beyond a name, address, phone number, and a cash-or-check-only payment note could be confirmed.
Cash only. This farm doesn't take cards, based on what we found — bring cash or confirm ahead if that's changed.
Searle Christmas Trees is included here mainly to represent the Uinta Basin, since most of the Christmas-tree options available to Vernal-area residents aren’t commercial farms at all but Ashley National Forest cut-your-own permits — a genuinely different arrangement involving a forest service permit and a designated cutting area rather than a farm visit. This listing is the one commercial seller found for that part of the state, and it comes with an unusually thin record even by the standards of the smaller farms in this file.
The single most useful confirmed fact is about payment: USU Extension’s grower directory notes that Searle accepts personal checks or cash, with no mention of card payment. That’s a real, practical detail worth planning around — bring cash or a checkbook rather than assuming a card reader will be on site. Beyond that, the trail runs cold. No tree species, no hours, no season dates, no pricing, and no confirmation of whether this is a cut-your-own field, a choose-and-cut lot, or a precut-only stand turned up anywhere in the sources checked, including an attempt to read the business’s own Facebook page, which didn’t return usable content.
This isn’t a case of skipped research — it reflects how little public information exists for this particular seller. Small, local operations without an active website or a readable social media presence are genuinely hard to research from outside, and Searle appears to fall into that category. That doesn’t say anything about the quality of the trees or the business itself; it just means anyone relying on this listing is working with far less than usual going in.
If you’re in or near Vernal and want a commercial tree rather than pursuing a national-forest permit, Searle appears to be the option, but almost everything about a visit — what it costs, what’s available, when it’s open — is unconfirmed. A phone call to 435-789-6646 before you go isn’t just good practice here; it’s close to the only way to learn anything at all.
For a region this underserved by commercial tree farms, that thin documentation is itself useful information: don’t expect a polished, event-style visit here, and build extra flexibility into your plans in case the trip doesn’t turn out the way you pictured it.

Skip Searle Christmas Trees if you can only pay by card, since the one confirmed detail about payment here is that cash or personal checks are accepted rather than cards, and skip it — or at least call first — if you need any confirmation of hours, season dates, or tree species before committing to the drive, since none of that could be found.
No other Uinta Basin farm appears in this research batch. The record notes that Ashley National Forest cut-your-own permits are the more common route to a tree in this region, though that's a different kind of arrangement — a public-lands permit system rather than a commercial farm — and wasn't researched in detail here.
Not confirmed either way. Whether it's cut-your-own, choose-and-cut, or precut-only wasn't found in any source checked, and this file leaves that field null rather than guessing.
Not found in any source. No species list is available for this listing.
Apparently not. USU Extension's grower listing specifically notes the farm accepts cash or personal checks, with no mention of card payment.
The record notes that most Christmas-tree options in that part of Utah are Ashley National Forest cut permits rather than commercial farms — a genuinely different arrangement involving a forest permit rather than a farm visit, and outside the scope of this file.
