Frequently Asked Questions

When do you open for the season?

We open the Friday after Thanksgiving and are open weekends through Christmas (while supplies last).
If you can’t make it on a weekend, weekday appointments are often available by request — just contact us in advance.

What are your hours?

We’re typically open Saturdays and Sundays from 10 AM to 5 PM.
Please check our Facebook page or the Location & Hours page for weather or inventory updates as the season goes on.

Where are you located?

We’re located at Red Barn Evergreens in Berrien Center, Michigan — right off M-62, just a few minutes from Berrien Springs.
Plug “Red Barn Evergreens” into Google Maps and you’ll come straight to our driveway!

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept Cash and Cards.

Do you provide saws, twine, and help loading?

Yes. We provide saws and twine, and we can help you bale and load your tree onto your vehicle if needed.
We do ask that you don’t bring chainsaws or power tools for safety reasons.

Can we bring our dog?

Absolutely — friendly, leashed dogs are welcome!
Please just clean up after them and keep them close by while walking the fields.

When is Santa at the farm?

Santa visits Saturdays and Sundays from 12 PM to 5 PM during the season (weather permitting).
You’re welcome to take your own photos, and kids can drop off their wish lists in our special Santa mailbox.

Can we take family photos at the farm?

Of course! We love seeing families make memories here.
Feel free to take your own pictures during your visit.
If you’re a professional photographer looking to book sessions, please visit our Photography page for details and scheduling.

What happens if the weather is bad?

We’re open rain, snow, or shine — but safety comes first.
If conditions are icy or dangerous, we may close temporarily and post an update on our Facebook page and website homepage.

Can we bring our own saw or equipment?

For safety reasons, personal chainsaws or axes aren’t allowed.
You’re welcome to bring your own hand saw, though we have plenty available for guests.

What should we wear or bring?

The fields can be muddy or snowy, so boots and warm clothes are highly recommended.
Bring gloves, a measuring tape if you like to plan, and maybe a blanket or tarp to protect your car during transport.

Are there restrooms on-site?

Yes — we have a portable restroom available near the parking area during the season.

Do you shake or wrap the trees?

Yes! We shake off loose needles and wrap trees in netting to make them easier to load and transport.
