"Why Should I Buy My Tree From
​The Truckee Optimist Tree Lot?"

Because the Truckee Optimist Club Christmas Tree Lot:

• Contributes $30,000 to Truckee's kids every year.
• Is stocked with both locally cut and Oregon cut trees.
• Gives your tree a fresh cut, trims up the limbs, and carries it to your car.
• Can deliver your tree to your house for a small fee (more money to Truckee's kids!)
• Gives high school kids an opportunity to volunteer and fulfill their community service hours towards graduation.
• And we'll repeat:  The tree lot contributes $30,000 to Truckee's kids every year.

Our Christmas Tree Varieties

Noble Firs

Noble Firs are long considered an excellent Christmas tree because of their beauty, stiff branches and long keep ability. The needles of the Noble Fir sometimes have a blue tint.  The Noble Fir is a very traditional Christmas tree, and is an excellent choice for the early Christmas tree shopper because they hold their needles well.  Nobles are a little fuller as compared to Red Firs and are best for situations when lighting is the predominant decoration.  Our Noble Firs are grown in Oregon and have been trimmed and shaped throughout their lifetime to create a consistent shape from tree to tree.

Red Firs (Silver Tips)

Red Firs are closer to what you'd call your "Charlie Brown" Christmas Tree.  The space between branches make for more room for hanging ornaments.  Our Red Firs grew just about twenty miles north of here, just west of Jackson Meadows.  These trees come to you naturally and have not been trimmed or shaped.  They are just as they were in the forest, imperfect but unique.
