ROSY CHEEKS LOOK GOOD ON EVERYONE

Set on a gentle hillside covered in evergreens, Dudeck’s Pine Country is an 80-acre Christmas tree farm with a special gift for holiday tradition. Amid horse-drawn wagon rides, hot chocolate, and homemade treats, families gather to hunt for the perfect tree, chat with Santa, and share the good cheer the Dudecks have graciously spread for over 65 years. In this year’s lineup of fresh trees: Fraser fir, concolor fir, Canaan fir, blue spruce, white pine, and Scotch pine. Also find handcrafted wreaths, garland, and rustic decorations in the Christmas shop.

Local tip: This is such a fun place to take family photos, you might be tempted to wear your most stylish outerwear. But remember, somebody is getting on the ground to cut that tree! If that’s not your thing, the Dudecks are happy to help.
