Boys Home Christmas Tree Farm Opens on November 29, 2024
November 25th, 2024

On Friday, November 29 the Boys Home Christmas Tree Farm will open for its 31st season. The updated hours for the 2024 season are below. In her bequest, Joanne Tannehill, left her Augusta County tree farm to Boys Home as a teaching and learning experience for students. The Boys Home Christmas Tree Farm is maintained throughout the year by the Christmas tree farm manager and students. In the spring, students assist with planting young seedlings and relocating mature transplants to the tree field. In the summer and fall, they shear trees and groom the fields. During the winter, the students harvest trees for wholesale. 

If you are purchasing a live tree this season, please consider a visit to the Boys Home Christmas Tree Farm. Additionally, Christmas swags and wreaths will be for sale.  The tree farm will have complimentary coffee, cocoa, and cookies available. All purchases will support Boys Home that serves as a home for the holidays and all year round for many young men.
