Christmas Tree Farms Sydney: The Best Spots to Pick up a Festive Fir

We've compiled an essential list of the best Christmas tree farms in Sydney to help you with your holiday decorations.

Aussie Christmas Trees

Is it just us or did 2023 fly by? Sure, we say it every year, but this year felt especially fast. Not that we’re complaining. It’s time to don your best Christmas t-shirt and blast some Christmas carols on the drive 'cause we’re getting in the festive spirit and visiting the best Christmas tree farms in Sydney.

Whether you’re looking for the perfect Christmas tree to decorate with the family or if you’re on some sort of Christmas tree farm pilgrimage to kick off the festive season, we’ve got things sorted with our edit of the best Christmas tree farms near Sydney.

Sydney Christmas Tree Farm

Sydney Christmas Tree Farm

Located in Duffys Forest, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Sydney Christmas Tree Farm has hundreds of trees for you to peruse. Trees are priced from $80 depending on size and bushiness. You can visit the farm to pick out a tree from December 1 – however, bookings are essential. Bonus: The team also sells Christmas tree stands made of strong plastic with a water well and clamps to secure your tree.

TIP: Securing the tree to your car roof is simple and tidy. Lay the tree stump-forward on the car roof and fasten from the trunk to the roof racks with ratchet straps.

Elf Help

Elf Help

For a hassle-free Christmas, a visit to Elf Help is a must, where real trees are available for you to take home. You have the option to choose from a plain or decorated tree. Yes, you read correctly – you can select a theme and the team will decorate it to order. Over and above that, you can also select their signature service that includes the tree, home delivery, installation, water stand and pick-up in January. Jump online to pre-book your tree or go into their Inner West store. 

TIP: Once the Christmas period is over and you’re ready to part with your tree, most councils will collect Christmas trees for mulching and compost.

Aussie Christmas Trees

Aussie Christmas Trees

There’s something quintessentially Aussie about buying a Christmas tree whilst barefoot surfers wander past on their way to Manly beach. Aussie Christmas Trees are one of our favourite options when it comes to Christmas flora because in the true spirit of the season, purchases of trees help support Royal Far West, a charity which supports health care for country kids (find out more here). This year you can pick up a touch of European charm with six-feet Douglas fir or a Radiata pine up to 8 feet high!

TIP: You can guarantee your tree by pre-ordering online and hand selecting your fir in December. First in, best dressed!

Available on the first two weekends in December from 6am-4pm or until sold out.

22 Wentworth Street, Manly

Willy's Christmas Tree Farm

Willy’s Christmas Tree Farm

Located in Sydney’s northwest, Willy’s Christmas Tree Farm boasts around 20,000 trees growing at any one time. At Willy's, you can choose a cut-your-own Christmas tree or select from the pre-cut trees. They recommend investing in a sturdy tree stand that allows water to freely flow into the base of the tree.

TIP: When choosing a tree to cut down, make sure to look out for brown or brittle needles. This is an indication of an unhealthy tree and it may not last the distance.

Christmas World

Christmas World

With multiple outposts throughout Sydney, Christmas World is Santa's capitol Down Under! The largest supplier of fresh cut USA-style Christmas trees, it's no surprise that Aussies flock to Christmas World for their dose of seasonal cheer. Available in store, these guys have trees of all sizes- from a modest 5 feet to a breathtaking 12 feet tall.

TIP: Keep your tree away from sources of heat including lamps, televisions and sunlit windows as these tend to speed up the process of evaporation causing the needles to wilt from moisture loss.

206 Forest Way, Belrose

28 McEvoy Street, Alexandria

9-13 Aspen Street, South Penrith

Merlino's Christmas Trees

Merlino’s Christmas Trees

Pine trees grown on farms in Oberon NSW are cut and delivered to Merlino’s Christmas Trees’ warehouse in Five Dock in Sydney’s Inner West. Choose a real cut Christmas tree or a live potted Christmas tree that will last well beyond Christmas day – be it a Monterey Pine, White Spruce or a Blue Star. These guys don’t take pre-orders, so if you’ve left your run a bit late, it’s the place to go.

TIP: When putting Christmas lights up, cut the hook of a wire coat hanger and duct-tape the hook to the top of a 3-foot PVC pipe. With the hook directed up, you can easily lift the lights to the highest tree branches.

260 Great North Road, Wareemba

Tomalong Christmas Tree Farm

Tomalong Christmas Tree Farm

Tomalong Christmas Tree Farm is a cut-your-own Christmas tree farm. Trust us, this lovely farm in the heart of Kenthurst is a charming place to visit in the lead up to Christmas. Trees are already available starting from November 25. A trip to their farm will also lead you to enjoy the beautiful Hills District, with roadside stalls for peaches, nectarines and flowers. Plus, the area has awesome cafes and galleries you can visit, too!

TIP: If you plan on standing your tree on a carpeted floor, make sure to lay some plastic beneath the bucket to avoid any sap or water stains forming.

96 Pitt Town Road, Kenthurst

Dural Christmas Tree Farm

Dural Christmas Tree Farm

Dural Christmas Tree Farm has mastered the perfectly shaped tree, and for lovers of a white Christmas, the farm offers a snow flocking service – a non-toxic spray that gives your tree a snow-laden effect. The Hills District farm also has online ordering and delivery services for anyone who can’t get to the farm in person. 

This year, they'll be setting up shops in these areas:

  • Big White Top at Stocklands, 387 Lakes Road, Glendale; Saturdays 2nd, 9th and 16th December from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm each day (or until sold out).
  • Newcastle Showground , Griffith Road Entry, Newcastle; Sundays, 3rd, 10th and 17th December from 7:00 am to 1:00 pm each day (or until sold out).

TIP: Saw 2 cm off the trunk of your tree immediately prior to placing it in its bucket will help with water absorption for fresh, lush needles throughout December.
