Christmas Tree Farms
Silveyville Christmas Tree Farm
6248 Silveyville Road, Dixon
A perfect Christmas Tree comes in many different shapes and sizes.
Does it need to be tall and skinny, or big and full?
Maybe it needs to fit on a table.
Do you love having a real Christmas Tree, but, man, those allergies?
We have trees that are less fragrant then others.
Do you always fall in love with that unique tree that has a bald spot, or lots of space, or maybe even a crooked trunk?
There are always a few looking for a new home.
Maybe you want to rescue an abandoned tree, yep it happens.
(We keep them in a special area where they get lots of love and care.)
Let us tell you about some of our Christmas Trees...

Lamb's Christmas Trees

Great selection of fresh cut trees, natural and flocked, in a variety of heights. We picked ours out within minutes and very easily flagged a worker over to come and help us prepare it for its ride home.
Friendly and fast service, even for a busy Saturday morning. We appreciate this family owned and operated business and are thankful they are still in business.

Chad's Christmas Trees
1300 Jefferson Blvd, West Sacramento
The truth is, when you support the Christmas tree industry by purchasing live Christmas trees for the holidays, you are contributing to a cycle of life that significantly improves our environment.
Real Christmas trees are grown on farms just like any other crop, and these farms employ more than 100,000 Americans. To ensure a constant supply, Christmas tree growers plant one to three new seedlings for every tree they harvest. So cutting a tree does not reduce the number of trees working to purify the air. In fact, if more trees are cut and sold, the industry will plant even more trees for tomorrow.
And here’s what happens: Every tree absorbs carbon dioxide and other gases, and emits fresh oxygen. It’s nature’s filtration system. What’s more, the Christmas tree farm helps to stabilize the soil, protecting the water supplies and providing refuge for wildlife. These beautiful, scenic belts of trees are often grown on soil that doesn’t support other crops, making it another win-win for the environment.

Please use the DONATE link to help us serve the children of Vacaville this Christmas. Pick up a child-specific ornament November 1 - December 5.
