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 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 more tips to make your trip fun and successful, click here !
  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 Hawaii 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!

And if you know of one I missed and want to add it or correct the information, please let me know! There are affiliate links on this page. Read our disclosure policy to learn more.

Now there IS a cut-your-own tree farm in Hawaii. AND, there is a Christmas tree ship. Yep, a Ship. Refrigerated container ships started crossing the Pacific in the 1960's. Now, usually on Thanksgiving day, a ship arrives with trees. Still, many Hawaiians use Norfolk Island pines, which are common there (although they were not native - they came from another South Pacific island).

Many visit local nurseries and pick their choice of Norfolk Island Pines from the native crops. Others buy potted specimens to decorate and illuminate. A few even poach them from local forest reserves.

NOTES: Retail stores such as Kmart, Daiei, Home Depot and City Mill are usually sold out of trees by mid December. Most retail stores started selling Christmas trees the day after Thanksgiving.

  A visitor writes: "We are a military family stationed in Hawaii. Originally from Washington State we are accustomed to cutting down our own FRESH Christmas tree every year, so when we moved to Hawaii we thought we were going to be stuck with getting a fake tree like everyone else here. We were so happy to find Helemano Farms last year after searching the internet. The farm is near the Dole Pineapple Plantation and the family is very helpful in assisting with cutting down the tree and loading them in the car. We highly recommend this farm. The trees are beautiful and last for a very long time. Here is a link to a newspaper article from last year. Very happy to find your website. We were looking for a pumpkin patch and you showed us that there are 3. Thank you so much. "
