Tips:
- If the name of the farm is blue with an underline; that's a link to their website or Facebook page. Click on it for the most current hours and information.
- ALWAYS email or call the farm or store BEFORE YOU GO
- many farms have closed in the past year, and of course, we won't know until the season starts and we find they aren't open! Call to confirm their supply, their hours
and whether they have trees, are allowing choose-and-cut or just precut trees; and which attractions or winter activities are available.
All three can change during the short Christmas season, due to weather, demand and the farmer's business conditions! Farms get sold, shut down or run out of trees, and they don't all update me every day, let alone every year. For

DON'T DRIVE OUT THERE IF YOU CAN'T REACH THEM (by phone, email or find current information on their website or Facebook page!
- And please tell the farmer you visit in South Ottawa, Ontario that you found their farm
here! I need the farmers to realize that you found them here so that they will keep their information up to date!

Open: after Thanksgiving - December 24, daily: new hours for Monday to Thursday: 9 am to 5 pm to Cut your own or Pre-cut Friday, Saturday and Sunday 9 am to 5 pm. Our wagon rides are very popular for both 'cut your own' customers and 'fresh cut' fans. The straw play structure has gotten some serious use and the snow has made the sliding hill very popular with the young (and not so young) crowd. We have lots of room to make snowmen. There are lots of rosy cheeks and our warm sales area is busy with visitors who come in to sit by the fire, sip hot chocolate, and munch on cookies and hot dogs. This is very enjoyable way to get into the holiday spirit. Our jam and gift certificates for wreaths, trees, and berries make great special occasion gifts. Please call to order.
