About our trees
Rangers and volunteers expertly grow a small selection of trees throughout the year, from the traditional Norway spruce to the Fraser fir, which is famous for producing the rich aromas of a traditional Christmas. Other trees on offer are from carefully chosen British growers and have been selected for their exceptional quality.
Help from the experts
Ranger for Longshaw Estate, Mark Bull, has been helping people choose the right tree to take home from Longshaw for over 15 years. “We are out working in nature year-round in some of the most spectacular landscapes the UK has to offer, so we really know and respect our trees.”
"We like to say a tree bought is a tree planted, as money raised through selling Christmas trees supports the conservation we do. Over the last year we’ve been restoring wood pasture at Longshaw, enabling the us to plant more native trees such as rowan, oak, holly and hawthorn to provide a better habitat for wildlife and protecting the woodland against climate change. We’ll also be planting individual trees across the estate that will grow as features in the landscape for many years to come."
