Its that time of year, chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose.  Time to deck the halls, stir the eggnog, and trim the tree.  The Christmas season is a special time of year where time honored traditions surround us.

One of those traditions is conveniently located down the road in Helvetia:  The Helvetia Christmas Tree Farm’s Enchanted Evening.

Like its summertime counterpart, The Oregon Lavender Festival, the Enchanted Evening takes place at the farm of Don and Nancy Miller located at 12814 NW Bishop Road in Hillsboro.

The Enchanted Evening is a wonderful family event which rings in the season with joy, singing, and hobby trains.  The festive atmosphere makes it easy for one to focus on finding what is often the first and most important component of the holiday decor:  The Tree.

As many can attest, a well chosen tree can turn the holiday season from just another year among many into a Christmas to remember.

With fields full of Nobles and Grands the Helvetia Christmas Tree Farm is bound to have a tree that will look great in your living room.  If cutting the tree is not up your alley, the staff will provide as much assistance as necessary.

Once your tree is shaken, baled, and firmly tied to the roof of the car, you can warm up with some hot cocoa and take a stroll through the gift shop, where all of the proceeds go to benefit children in Africa and the Ukraine.
