Where To Find A Christmas Tree In Brownstone Brooklyn

The pine needles are beginning to fill our sidewalks with their holiday scent, so it must be that time of year. And it’s pretty easy to pick up trees, wreaths, and other holiday accoutrements throughout the area. Beyond the convenience finding your tree on a block near you, the folks who come sell them are rather friendly and have a story to tell.

Here’s a list of places throughout our neighborhoods. Note: We’ve listed a few that are preparing to set up shop in just a few days, however, tree sellers are already plentiful.

Park Slope/South Slope/Windsor Terrace

• 8th Avenue and 8th Street
Foley Firs is back with trees, wreaths, tree stands, and more on weekdays 1-9pm, weekends 10am-10pm. Plus, part of the purchase price will go to benefit the local public school of your choice — including PS 10, PS 107, PS 124, PS 295, or any others you’d like to suggest. And because that’s not enough, you can also get your tree delivered — and you can even order it online.
