Ticonderoga Farms is where I have been getting my Christmas Tree for many years. It is a little known secret except by word of mouth for the most part. I know it's a little early for a tree, but they have so much more to offer her.....they have year round hay rides, hill side slides, popcorn, hotdogs, you name it...and when you do go to get your tree, consider Ticonderoga Farms..
