Weather Update 12/3/09: The weather is looking good for the tree hunt! Be prepared for snow showers and snow on the ground. The road into the Preserve does have patches of snow and ice. Drive carefully! 

Join the Land Trust for this fun, festive annual event! Search for the perfect holiday tree while helping restore the native forests of the Metolius Preserve.

The Tree Hunt will be held at the Land Trust's Metolius Preserve North Fork kiosk, driving directions are below. 

Other important details:

  • We will be cutting grand fir trees.
  • Trees are free-range and not sculpted to be the perfect Christmas Tree. But they are beautiful and available in lots of sizes.
  • Trees are scattered throughout the forests of the Metolius Preserve so you will have to hunt for them!
  • Bring your own hand saw (no chainsaws please) and rope.
  • Dogs are allowed on leash only. 
  • Dress for the weather.
  • We'll provide warm drinks!


There is a suggested $10 donation.
