Tree Costs
At Cassens tree farms we individually price each tree so you know the cost before you choose your tree. Each year we go through the fields and measure each tree to determine the height. We look at the fullness of the tree to determine if it is a perfect tree, an average tree, or perhaps a Charlie Brown tree. Based on the species, height and fullness, we assign a price and put a price tag on each tree available for sale. Trees without price tags are not for sale.
Following are the guidelines that we use to price the trees. For perfect trees, the cost is usually at least $5 more. For less than perfect trees, the price can be considerably less. Usually everyone can find a tree that they like within their price range. Generally speaking, fir trees usually cost about twice as much as pine trees.
| Pine Trees | Fir Trees | |||
| 6 to 7 feet | $40 to $50 | $65 to $75 | ||
| 7 to 8 feet | $55 to $65 | $85 to $95 | ||
| 8 to 9 feet | $70 to $85 | $100 to $140 | ||
| 9 to 10 feet | $90 to $105 | $145 to $185 | ||
| 10 to 11 feet | $190 to $235 | |||
| 11 to 12 feet | $240 to $310 | |||
| 12 to 13 feet | $315 to $365 | |||
Payment Methods
We accept cash and credit cards including Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express credit and debit cards. We DO NOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS, so please plan accordingly.
Tree Baling, Drilling, and Tree Stands
At our West Lafayette tree farm, we offer tree baling for $4 which wraps your tree into a netting for easier handling. We also sell heavy duty tree stands that require the tree be drilled for the stand to attach to the tree. The year you buy a stand, the drilling is free. The following years the cost is $4 to have your tree drilled for the stand. You do not need to bring your stand back to the farm as it is better if you attach your stand at home. Stands range in cost from $19.50 to $64.50 depending on the size.
Our West Lafayette tree farm has a Christmas shop with numerous items for sale such as Christmas tree ornaments and seasonal decorations. Brown's Sugared Donuts Airstream of Attica will be set up again this year at our West Lafayette tree farm! They will be serving hot donuts, kettle corn, caramel corn, warm drinks, good eats and lots of Christmas treats!!
