| How to buy | Illinois MarketMaker, the find-a-farm directory the Illinois Department of Agriculture points to, lists these ways to buy direct: U-pick, retail. Products as published in that directory: Blueberries, Christmas Trees, Evergreen Trees, Fruit, Nursery & Horticulture Products. The farm describes itself this way in its directory profile: At Tammen Treeberry Farm®, you may choose and cut your own Christmas tree and pick your own blueberries. Two or three generations of some families have visited Tammen Treeberry Farm® and say that it is their family tradition. We grow about 160 acres of Christmas trees. We have been growing them since 1956. Originally, we sold most of the trees wholesale. We began to allow people to come to the farm to choose and cut their own Christmas trees in 1970. All of our trees are sold that way now. We stopped wholesaling trees in 1977. You cannot get a fresher tree than one you choose and cut yourself. We grow about 50 acres of blueberries. The first bushes were planted in 1964. |
