Shamrock Christmas Tree Farm

Here's a few snowy pics from Shamrock

A little snow out here at Shamrock. Have a great weekend everybody!

With a heavy heart, we have decided not to open for the 2023 season. After 28 consecutive years, unforeseen circumstances have led to making this very difficult decision. A shortage of Fraser firs has made it difficult fulfilling our growing need for both quality and quantity precuts. Our largest field is nearly ready to be opened, but realistically needs one more growing season. We thank all of you have made our farm part of your yearly family tradition. All of us at Shamrock wish you a very Merry Christmas and look forward to seeing you in the 2024 season.

The pumpkin patch will not be open this fall. The Christmas Tree Farm will be open day after Thanksgiving.

Sun barely visible through the smoke.

A few more pics...

Planting 3500 Douglas fir this weekend. 1st pic is my father and I circa 1990. Pics from this weekend are me , my boys with me on the tractor with grandpa on the planter. 33 years and 3 generations

Many of the seasoned guys dressed like Joe today for laughs! He had quite the confused look on his face before realizing the joke, sure added a smile on his face and a good laugh! Great way to end the weekend.

We expected a delivery today of precut Fraser firs. Today has came and went and our trees never showed up. We have been trying to contact our supplier all day to no avail. We are hoping for a Christmas miracle at this point.

We still have plenty of Douglas fir to be cut growing in our fields, but the likelihood of racks filled with fresh, beautiful Fraser fir is dwindling. We are as disappointed as you are.

We will update with any new information

Pre-cut update:

The farm we are getting our precuts from just contacted us. Trees won't be shipped to us until late tomorrow or Saturday. Keep an eye on the weather, Saturday looks to rain and wind. As soon as I can confirm exactly when I will. Thanks

Looking like our precut delivery will be late Thursday. Around 750 or so Fraser firs are expected. Hoping to have the trees set up for Friday's open at 9am. I will update what sizes are getting delivered once it's finalized.

Let's see em decorated....
Here's our 10.5' field cut Douglas fir

Have a great Thanksgiving! We open tomorrow at 9am

Excellent news! Santa will be at the Shamrock Christmas Tree Farm on the weekends weather depending! Check our FB page for the latest updates.

We will be opening a new field on Friday. We will have in the field trees from 6 to 10'. There will be no precut Fraser firs opening weekend. As of now, Santa will not be at Shamrock this season.

Just about 3 weeks until opening day, and here is today's sunrise.

Closing up early. Rain just started here and it's only gonna get worse.

Good morning and happy Monday. The pumpkin patch will be open this coming weekend, oct 22 and 23, from 9 to 5. Hope to see you then for our final weekend of pumpkin season!

Foggy start to the day at the pumpkin patch. Fog is gonna burn off and we are gonna have another beautiful fall day. Live music starts at noon, local oysters and clams, local wine, and Greenport jerky will be here. Come on down for pumpkin picking and a ride around the Christmas tree farm on our train.

Good morning and happy Friday! Got a few shots of the Xmas trees this morning. We will be open tomorrow at 9 for pumpkin picking and around noon will be in full swing with live music, local oysters and clams, wine, train rides around the farm, and of coarse our great fire pit. Hope to see you then

With near 40mph wind gusts and on and off rain forecasted for today we will not be opening. See you next Saturday for pumpkin picking, local clams and oysters, wine and live music!

We will be closed tomorrow due to the heavy rain on its way.

The pumpkin patch opens tomorrow at 9am. We offer u-pick pumpkins on the vine, train rides around the farm, Halloween decor, mums, and of coarse local oysters and clams, as well as local wine served at our farmers market! Live music!

Final detail for the fire pit. Shaun inlayed a shamrock I made out of resin and a few metalic colors.

Just completed the fire pit inside the evergreen maze. Big thanks to Shaun Sterling for doing an incredible job! Hoping to open the maze fall of 2023

33rd year planting Christmas Trees on this farm. Just finished planting 900 Douglas fir.

Not a bad start to the day
