Where to Buy Christmas Trees in San Mateo

By Rebecca Williamson · December 4th, 2010

There seems to be fewer places to buy Christmas trees in San Mateo than when I was a kid. Maybe its because I’m not paying as much attention to Christmas trees as I did when I was 10, or maybe there really are fewer places. In any case, if you’re looking for a place to buy a Christmas tree in San Mateo, here are a few places I’ve found.

Best Christmas Trees are in Half Moon Bay

When I was a kid we use to love going to Half Moon Bay with my parents and godparents the day after Thanksgiving, getting on a bumpy hayride that dropped you off in the middle of a forest, picking our tree and watching my dad and godfather cut it down. Then they would have to drag it back to the hayride, throw it on the truck then get it off the truck, tie it to the car and drive over 92. To this day I’m not really sure why they did this for so many years as I know now how miserable this experience must have been for them. But, my sister and I loved it so maybe that’s why.

My point in telling you this long story is if you have kids, going to a tree farm in Half Moon Bay is a must do. Here are a few that allow you to cut your own tree down.
