Horse Creek Tree Farm

 

About Horse Creek Tree Farm

Owned by Terry and Lona Lewis, assisted by Lee and Bunny Moeller.

Terry and Lona Lewis started a family tradition forty years ago when they made their first trip to cut and choose a fresh tree for Christmas. Their goal in establishing Horse Creek Christmas Tee Farm is to be a fun place for families to come and start their own tradition.

The Farm is located in a valley in the Loses Hills south of the Omaha area. The trees ready for cutting are several different varieties of scotch pine. If you are looking for a tall tree, there is a good selection available. A lot of care goes into shaping beautiful trees that you will love looking at once they are home and decorated.

Opening the Friday after Thanksgiving. Open Friday-Sunday until Christmas

Features

Tree selection at Horses Creek begins with a short ride on a wagon, sitting on a bale of hay enjoying the beautiful scenery. You are free to roam among the rows to pick out that perfect tree. You can cut your own tree or we will cut it for you. Once back at the shop, your tree will be shaken to get rid of loose needles, baled to help you get it home and then loaded into your car. To warm up you are invited to come inside the shop to enjoy a cup of hot apple cider or hot chocolate and a snack of holiday quick breads.

Horse Creek has a selection of wreathes-decorated or plain. You can pick out an undecorated wreath and choose the bow you want put on it. If you want to remember a loved one, we have cross wreathes for grave. Mailbox wreathes are also available.
