Is it too early to begin thinking about Christmas? Not if you’re Hensler Nursery! Even though we’re gearing up for the opening day of Fall Fest, we’re still hard at work planning for Christmas Fest which begins the day after Thanksgiving.

We’ve worked hard over the last few years to raise a great crop of Christmas trees for the 2009 season. You won’t be disappointed when you and the family ride the horse drawn wagon out to the field to select your Christmas tree. We’re also planning on great custom wreath designs, kissing balls, crosses and grave pillows. In the Christmas barn you’ll find a new selection of Fontanini items this year, so check our website as the holiday draws near for new items and special promotions.

In the meantime, did you know that Hensler’s is on Facebook? It’s another way for you to keep up to date with everything going on at our farm and connect with other people who enjoy coming out to Hensler’s.

Each summer we send a team of Hensler’s staff out into the tree fields to shape and contour our Christmas trees. The members of our team use a light touch to bring out the best shape and enhance the natural beauty of the trees.

This summer, we took a few videos of Joe hard at work using a long shearing knife and a little artistry to prepare our trees for Christmas Fest. As you’ll see in the video, it’s a lot of hard work but it’s time well spent once the families take the horse drawn wagon out to the field to select their Christmas tree.
