An organic Christmas tree!? Really? Yes! Most trees are sprayed with toxic chemicals. The main driver is I didn’t want to bring a tree into our house that had been sprayed with pesticides and herbicides, including Roundup (which is often used). Find organic Christmas Trees in your state below!
Our entire family touches the tree, we put our children’s non-toxic presents under the tree, particles from the tree fall on our floors and toxins accumulate in the dust of our home. These are all reasons I don’t want to bring a Christmas tree sprayed with chemicals into our home.
If you know of a Christmas tree farm that doesn’t use chemicals, please let me know so I can add it to my list.
It’s so important to always verify information so please double check with these farms before you go.

Online Organic Christmas Trees:
- Silver Tip Tree Farm – grown organically and working on becoming certified organic. Order online and have them ship it to you. They sell out quickly so you want to pre-order.
- Christmas Trees Now – order online and they ship. According to my email with them, no spraying, herbicides, pesticides, or colorants are used on their trees.
National Forest:
- Another option for the adventurous is always getting a permit from the national forest service and getting your tree that way. It’s an inexpensive to get a Christmas tree but hike in and out to get your tree.
Live Tree:
A live potted tree you can re-use yearly until it is too big to bring into your home.
Wood Trees:
Etsy sells numerous wood trees. You could spend hours looking for options. Here are a few options: a pine Christmas tree, and a minimalist Christmas tree.
Please let your friends know about organic Christmas tree farms near them. We need to support these farmers that are doing the right thing! If you know of a tree farm that is no spray please let me know so I can add them to this list.
Merry Christmas!!

Hi! I just went on Billy’s Farm’s website and they said their farm will be closed for this 2021 season due to the trees being destroyed from the fire. Not sure about next year though.
