Hunter Christmas Trees

Oh how I love my Swansons nursery but I’ve gone here for my Xmas tree the last two years and these guys are solid. A 5 – 6 foot Noble fir (the longest needle lasting tree) cost me $ 45 but I saw prices and tree types run the gamut in price. Something for everyone.
The people helping you with your tree, from picking to wrapping to tying securely on your car are always super friendly and thank god, patient.
This place smells divine… these guys have been here selling trees since I moved to this neighborhood originally in 1988.
Great spot to find your Perfect tree.
Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas…

We were excited to find this place still had a good selection of trees after calling/​looking at several others on Christmas Eve Eve.
It only took a few minutes in the pouring rain to find ‘the one’ this tree was perfect it was skinny and had character. I didn’t want a fat tree after last years tree practically engulfed our condo.
The staff was great, friendly and helpful. They were informative, cut the bottom off it, wrapped it, and loaded it in our truck! We didn’t have to touch the tree until we got home!
The tree was only up for a week and a half, but it barely lost any needles it was a good healthy tree.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Found a great tree in a matter of minutes. The tree stands available are ingenious. Best Christmas tree experience ever.

This is a our second year purchasing our tree at Hunter’s. We are a big fan as they have a great selection, they’re not a box store and they’re right in the neighborhood. Their prices are comparable to most tree places. This year Paige picked out a 4 foot tall noble fir (just her size she always says) for $ 19.99.

I’ve been going there for 15 years to get my tree. This year we splurged and bought a beautiful white spruce. The tree started dropping needles by the handful immediately. I honestly have never seen a tree lose it’s needles faster. I called and they completely blew my off, made no offer to replace it using what could only be hundreds of trees that will just go in the chipper after the holidays. I’m going in person to talk to them, I may even bring back my sad but once beautiful tree. I may end up giving my money elsewhere in the coming years… TBC the reason they got two stars if for the 15 years I’ve gone to them. Before this I would have given them a ⁴⁄₅.

Incredible selection, Eco friendly, fun & friendly staff, convenient location. We found a perfect tree in 15 minutes!
Helpful hint: Be sure to ask for Spencer-He’s a strong young man and a great football player!

We bought our tree from Hunter Farms last Christmas and plan to do so again tomorrow. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and had the same level of service as Jane described. The young man that helped us tied our tree to the top of our car and they suggested the bottle of tree food for us as well, which we bought. We have plenty left to use it this year and possibly next year too.

Horrible people with no Christmas spirit! They aren’t willing to spare a dime or damaged tree for families that can’t afford to buy one at full price, and are fanatic in their belief that Christmas is all about $$$ and not charity.
Kick off your Christmas by doing the right thing and buy your tree anywhere but here.

This is a great farm-​to-​market place to go for your pumpkins! They’re open on the weekends during the month of October!

I live a block away, and no matter how miserable or icy the weather, the opening of Hunter’s Tree Farm (note correct spelling of the name) always warms me up and makes me smile inside. I suspect that all native W’woodians feel the same.
They always help me to pick out the most Charlie Brown tree, and even though it’s a the runt of their fine trees and a bargain for $ 10, it smells just as nice and decorates just as well as the fancier trees. And the staff there is super-​friendly, too. They always laugh at my request for the smallest and ugliest tree, then find one that was destined for the chipper and give it to me for a song (figuratively).
A note to Anne-​Lise: they replenish their supply of trees every day or two, so there was no reason to settle for a less-​than-​perfect tree unless you were in an urgent hurry.

We tried this business for the first time this year. We plan on returning there every year from now on. They had a great selection of trees that seemed fresh enough to me (not an expert). After we chose our tree, a nice handsome high school boy carried it for us to the check out. Then he cut a new bottom, shook the stuff off, wrapped it up and put it in my van. He would have tied it to the top of my vehicle if I wanted that. We also purchased a bottle of liquid to add to the tree water to help it last longer. The only thing that prevents this review from being 5 stars is that two smaller branches were broken.

Sooooooo —
It was a crummy rainy Seattle day. I was having a horrible [ absolutely horrible ] day. What better to cheer a girl up than a Christmas tree?
So I grabbed my friend’s handy dandy cellphone, Unilocaled Christmas Trees and uncovered this cute little place.
Its in a nice little lot with loads of trees. I’ve never bought a Christmas tree without my daddy before so I was horribly confused about all the different types of trees. But the people were super nice and didn’t question my sanity as I hobbled around trailing mud and pine needles smelling all the different trees.
All I had to do once I found my tree was find a strapping young man (woohoo cliches!) and he carried the tree over to the cashier, offered to trim it (they trim trees?!), had all the pine needles shaken off (neat-​o contraption), netted the tree and carried it to our car.
Wow. Talk about customer service. They even had twine and a tree stand for the unprepared (I was one of them).
Unfortunately T_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​_​T the cute little reindeer isn’t there yet, he comes in next week — so I’ll have to come by next week. But I’m afraid if I do that I’ll cave in and buy another tree O_​O
p. s. I got a 5 – 6 ft Noble Fir (that smells delish) for 39.98.

Just got our tree, from Hunter farms lot in Wedgewood (On 35^th and 75^th, just after the post office).
They have Noble and Douglas Firs. They also have wreaths.

Got a 7ft Noble Fir for $ 40. There are quite a lot of folks to help you out.
They will:
1. Trim and give a fresh cut
2. Put plastic netting
3. Help with getting the tree to your car
Here is something new (for me!), they got professional tree shaker.
That’s right, they have a machine that will shake the tree for few seconds to get all the loose needles out. It was fun!
))) Lot is open from day after Thanksgiving to December 23^rd (((

Sometimes, if you slightly unfocus your eyes and loosen, just a bit, your grip on the here and now, you can drive on 35^th Ave NE through Wedgwood and imagine yourself back in the 50’s. What other neighborhood has a very large vacant lot on a main thoroughfare not filled with weeds and needles or a large sign touting its future development? In summer it’s home to real, old fashioned roadside fruit stands. On Sundays, churchgoers use it as a parking lot. And from Thanksgiving weekend through Christmas it is home to a tiny reindeer, lights strung from poles, and lots of Christmas trees.
I always get my tree here. I live a few blocks away so we walk up there, find a tree, and walk home like something out of a freakin’ Norman Rockwell painting. It’s a syrupy, sickly sweet scene that I love, despite my kids asking every year «Can’t we puh-​leeze drive this time?» No. Shut up.
But I digress. The quality of the trees is very good and new ones come in all season. There are trees for every budget and taste, from inexpensive sheared Douglas Firs to Noble Firs and Spruces. They have wreaths and swags and branches and friendly people who hold up trees for you and never seem impatient no matter how long it takes to pick out a tree. Hey, it has to be perfect. They’ll cut as much off as you want and wrap it in netting for free, and carry it to your car. The one year that a tree died on me in the first week I got it, I went back there and the manager came to my home, with a new tree, and took the dead one away. No charge. Who does that?
And don’t forget to visit the cute little reindeer. Although, he does have a look about him that says «oh god, here we go again, I’m so bored.» Sort of like my kids.
