Christmas Trees

maceocc2

I'm wondering if anyone can help me here, this is my first Christmas in D.15 and was wondering if anyone knows anywhere that sell real Christmas trees?

Thanks for the help.

The green grocers in the village do and they will fit the stand on the end for you if you bring it with you.

Just in case the op isn't so sure or new to the area.

I saw a guy setting up shop in the car park of Eurospar and the Hartstown House in Hartstown (behind the Topaz Petrol Station)

Ah right Justin normally has a sign in the garden/land beside the shop where the shed is/was.

What are their trees like Thaed?
Last year we trekked out to a place on the way out towards Kilbride where they grow the trees, and picked the one we wanted. They cut it there and then so it was fresh, but I'm feeling lazyier this year so might stay more local!

They are from a family run tree farm in wicklow and I am absolute thrilled with the one we got with over all height and shape.

Going to have to lop about 2 inches of the top to get the star on it mind.




It's not a half hour out of the netting so I expect the branches to lower over the course of the day and
when the kids start loading it up with baubles.

Last year I got mine on the Porterstown Road, it's from a large house with a daughter and father running it. They had a signboard outside. They were very friendly and very reasonable last year and helped put it in the car. Will try them again this year.

Apparently My neighbour is selling them just down the road from me at Scribblestown House. Might wander down there and carry it back, save the earth from a little petrol!

Clonee sawmills are sell tress for 40-45, pre-drilled and in the netting the stand are 10 euro

Tree's are for sale in the The Carpenter car park for 50-55 euro and stands are 15 euro.

Nevyn

I got mine as in the picutred above 6ft tall tree in Justins.

I tried the guy in beside the eurospar but the trees didnt seem great so I got one in blanch shopping centre car park where lifestyle sports and harvey norman is, about 8 ft and for 40 euro.

Happy enough with it and the people selling them were quite helpful.

Thanks for the help.

Carrying it back from there won't be easy, they have some 'driveway'.

I bought a tree from there. I got a nice 7 footer for €30, which is very reasonable. The man there was also very helpful, bundled it up and secured my car boot to keep it in place. I'd definitely recommend taking a look, the trees are really nice and well priced. I used to get mine at Justins, but they were more expensive than the above even last year.

For anyone wondering, this place is just off the River Road. If you're driving down the Ashtown Rd, you cross the train track, past the Superquinn and go straight at the next junction (crossing the River Road). You'll see the signs from there.

If there's no sign of anyone just knock at the house the trees are outside.

I got ours from that place yesterday - Its lovely. And I echo that the chap was extreemly helpful. In fact he even was good enought to deliver it for me (it helped that I do know him lol).. . ....!!
