Lorem ipsu
Reasons to love Leaton trees
We have been growing Christmas trees for 65 years and retailing for 40 years, retailing 2,000+ trees per annum.
We are members of the British Christmas Tree Growers Association and adhere to BCTGA standards.
We only start cutting our trees at the end of November and then only by demand.
We care about the environment. We replace every Christmas tree we remove, ensuring that there is no net increase in carbon emissions.
Early bird
For the best selection come sooner rather than later to choose your tree. We would advise that any trees over 10 foot or 3.0 meters in height are ordered in advance.
Caring for your tree
Providing the tree is kept in water and taken out of its net, it will last best if kept outside (but away from frost) until 7-10 days before Christmas. Inside, keep as far away from direct heat sources, and use a water holding stand.
Pick or cut?
Pick your tree from those ready-cut in the Leaton Forest yard or bring a saw to cut down your own.
If you want to choose yours from the forest, but haven't brought a hand saw with you;
Please speak to one of our staff for advice and help.
