The shop also features a “Spin and Pick” system, in which trees are displayed off the ground for maximum viewability.

For over 30 years, McMurtrey’s Red-Wood Christmas Tree Farm has been offering wagon rides, free cocoa, cider, candy canes, wreaths, and of course, trees. Although not in Seattle, the dog-friendly spot is perfect for photo ops and families. If you’re not in the mood to chop down your own tree, buy one of their pre-cut trees that are brought in weekly.
