The Christmas season is in full swing and people are getting ready to deck the halls with a fragrant tannenbaum.

Here are a few places to find a fresh fir on the island, although decorators on a budget could just go the Charlie Brown route and spruce up a branch.

All tree sellers ask that customers wear masks and practice social distancing, and said this year hot cider and sleigh rides will be missing because of the pandemic.

North End

One popular Christmas tree farm on the island, Pacific Winds Farm in Oak Harbor, is closed this season after it was recently sold. According to the farm’s Facebook page, the new owners plan to reopen in 2021.

A Knot in Thyme, 4233 Degraff Road, Oak Harbor

Customers can find Christ-mas trees, as well as handmade garland and wreaths at this North End holly farm.

After selling out the first order of a couple hundred trees, A Knot in Thyme recently received another round of pre-cut trees available for sale beginning this weekend. Prices range from $38 to a couple hundred dollars, depending on size and species, said owner Wendy Rawls, adding the most popular tree is a 6- or 7-foot noble fir for about $80.

Holiday decorators can also buy wreaths, garlands and swags that are made onsite using sprigs from the farm’s 300 holly trees, and the shop has a variety of ornaments and gifts inside. For information, check the website or call 360-240-1216.

Club President Ed Green’s advice is simple: Buy now.

In its first weekend, the club sold about half of its inventory, he said.

“We’re about 247 percent above what we were last year,” of sales, Green said.

Prices range from $20-$100 per tree from 2 to 12 feet tall. The most popular tree is a Douglas fir, though the club has other varieties too, Green said.

The club sells trees every year as a fundraiser to support the club’s mission to support hearing and vision causes. The club will be selling trees daily until they are sold out.
