Experience Christmas tree shopping like never before at Parker's Pine Lane Nursery! Soft lights cast a warm glow over rows of trees, scents of fresh-cut pine, and the aroma of hot cider and cocoa hang in the air. Sweet Christmas desserts and cookies fill tables, and festive holiday goods spill from shelves and displays in the quaint cottage market. It is a family and community affair you do not want to miss!
Owners Angie and Kurt Hughes, along with their staff, start preparing for the holidays early. Nursery Manager, Craig Brewker, places orders in January to secure the highest quality Christmas trees from tree farms nationwide.
Dena Singh, Community Outreach and Marketing Director, describes the holiday prep: "We transition from a 100% garden center to a holiday shop and Christmas tree lot in November. We make it a huge event! We have treats and warm drinks, and we cut each tree and help people load them into their cars. It's a fun day! Families come and take their Christmas photos in the middle of it all."
Brewker describes their 'white-glove' tree service, "When you pick out a tree, we cut it to order. For example, if you want a little higher base to fit more presents under, we cut the boughs and give them to you. We go above and beyond! We know our trees may cost a little more, but people aren't going to get the customer service or quality anywhere else."
Santa makes a cameo appearance at the Holiday Open House on December 7th this year. The celebratory event, free to the community, includes live music, holiday shopping, treats and a variety of trees for sale.
Holiday workshops and events start in November, along with the opening of the tree lot the week of November 25th. It closes on December 22nd, if the trees don't sell out earlier. They sold out last year!
