Previous Page and On Left: Part of the magic is immersing yourself among the varieties of fir<br />
trees that grow on the farm. From towering trees to tiny saplings, you will feel like you are in a<br />
remote forest far from the holiday hustle and bustle. This page: Twinkling lights invite visitors<br />
into the warm rustic holiday barn that looks like a winter wonderland with flocked trees,<br />
wreaths, and festive seasonal décor.<br />
fresh designer wreaths and garlands adorned with beautiful bows and<br />
unique seasonal ornaments. A charming Victorian Christmas Village display<br />
complete with a train is the focal point. "Year after year customers and their<br />
children return to see it ... and it never gets old,” shared Diane.<br />
In 1982, the first Christmas trees were planted on the Davis Family property<br />
in Sebastopol, replacing a poultry farm and apple orchard. In its heyday,<br />
Sebastopol was known for its apple orchards. Now the town is celebrated for<br />
its vineyards and a handful of legacy apple orchards. Grandma Hazel Gary<br />
affectionately nicknamed “Buddie” worked the farm throughout her 80s<br />
along with her husband and family. Even at 93 years old before her passing,<br />
Grandma Buddie could be found in the barn at Christmastime. Diane and<br />
Gary Davis are the owners who continue to celebrate the founder's devotion<br />
and the family tradition of growing Christmas trees and making the farm a<br />
special place for families and children at Christmastime.<br />
