Family Christmas Tree Farms in Forsyth County:

1. Kinsey Family Farm: I love this place! If you want to have the full experience and a great farm holiday atmosphere, you need to go here! Kinsey Family Farm is family owned and operated. It’s about 20 minutes North East of Cumming. You can sip on hot chocolate while roaming around their outdoor barn looking at Christmas trees, homemade wreaths and garland that are made from their tree trimmings. You can also roast marshmallows over the fire pit, take a hayride, feed the catfish, feed the goats and shoot an apple gun. You have the option of cutting down your own tree on the farm or picking one out that’s already been cut. This is a great place to go no matter your age and what you’re looking for, they have it all! One more tip about going here, if you’re like my family, make this a yearly tradition, when you make a purchase of a Christmas tree, you get a Kinsey Family Farm ornament, every year they make a new one, collect them over the years like my family has done!
2. Warbington Farms: Warbington Farms is proud to present their first annual “Christmas on the Farm.” Come be a part of the lighting of their huge Christmas tree!
