Visiting Christmas tree farms near Orlando is the perfect way to bring in the holidays! Most people may not think of Florida when talking about fresh Christmas trees, but there actually are great Christmas tree farms in Central Florida and Orlando to cut down your own tree and bring it home.

Besides selling lush firs, spruces, and other Christmas tree varietals, many of these Orlando Christmas tree farms offer additional fun including hot chocolate, wagon rides, petting zoos, and more. And beyond trees, visitors can sometimes buy wreaths, ornaments, and other Christmas goodies to decorate their home. Take a look at some of our fave Christmas tree spots now!
