A Day Out at Larkins Farm for Christmas Trees

Posted on December 4, 2021November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Earlier, before all of the trees were ready, we got a chance to check out Larkins Farm and explore their Christmas Trees! Larkins Farm is a local Christmas tree farm, that has a variety of different Christmas trees waiting to be brought home for Christmas. These trees are grown naturally, with weeds all around them and free of pesticides, but have been cut down and placed into an empty field, so that people can explore them and pick out the ones they want. Larkins Farm is known for having natural and real trees – and as it is a family tradition to go out and pick out our Christmas tree, we were excited to select one!

This space is split up into two areas; the Trampoline Park and the Air Park, which require different socks, different tickets, and have different timers. There is a shared cafe area between the two, and you can book tickets for both, but we ended up going to each half on different days, to expand our adventure across two different weekends.
