For Los Gatos, CA locals who have yet to get their Christmas trees, a great place to go to purchase a fresh tree is Patchen Christmas Tree Farm. At the farm, customers can wander through the variety of trees, select the perfect one, and cut it down themselves. Those who need assistance can enlist the help of a friendly staff member to find the right tree, cut it, carry it, and secure it to their vehicle. There are many varieties to choose from, including Douglas Fir, Sierra Redwood and Monterey Pine. Those who prefer a true fir, like Nobel Fir, California Red Fir or Fraser Fir, can choose from the precut trees imported from Oregon, Washington, and High Sierra.
Patchen Christmas Tree Farm offers Los Gatos locals fun for the whole family. There are plenty of picnic areas, and dogs on leashes are welcome to join the fun. Santa Clause pays a visit to the farm on weekends, which the little ones of the family will enjoy. Those who get chilled while out hunting for a tree can warm up with free, hot mulled cider and candy canes.
After finding the perfect tree, Los Gatos locals will want to stop in the gift shop for holiday décor and tree maintenance products. For holiday decorating, pick up handmade wreaths, which are made fresh daily, pine cones, fresh holly and mistletoe and other holiday decorations.
After purchasing your perfect tree, if you need to take care of any holiday shipping and packaging, stop by one of the Los Gatos PostalAnnex locations for UPS and FedEx shipping services. The friendly professionals can help compare rates to help you select the best rate and service for shipping your packages. Remember that there are deadlines to get your gifts to their destination in time for Christmas, so give the PostalAnnex nearest you a call for more details about shipping deadlines for the holidays.
