Find the perfect Christmas tree at one of these farms or nurseries around Kansas City
Editor’s note: This list has been updated for 2022. See the latest list here.
With Thanksgiving behind us, the winter holiday season has officially begun. That means it’s time for festive decor—both around the city and in our homes.
If you’re planning to spend money at local businesses this holiday season, a locally grown Christmas tree is an easy way you can support Missouri and Kansas farmers. If you’d rather not chop down a tree at a farm, many local nurseries offer pre-cut trees as well.
“The smell of a live tree… that’s one of my favorite parts of having a real Christmas tree,” said Carrie Mathews of Sunshine Flowers in Kansas City, Kansas. “If you put a small tree outdoors, just planted in a flower pot, it can last all winter long.”
