GHJ Tree Farm

03/22/2016

To all the GHJ Tree Farm page followers: this week we are officially handing the keys to our dad's place over to the new owners, effectively retiring the GHJ Tree Farm apples and firs. Thank you so much for your support and kindness before our parents died on through to today. We were so blessed to have such a community. We are very sad to see the farm go, but are also hopeful for this new chapter in the life of the property. Again, thank you all! (Below is a link to a blog post I wrote today on saying the final good-bye to my childhood home.)

For a long time after he passed I thought my dad lived on in that house, in the Oaks and Madrones, Firs and Bays. I thought he was in the wind, the call of the Blue Jay, the silent step of the deer.

After 30+ years of providing beautiful Christmas trees, boughs, and mistletoe to our friends, family, and fans, we are sad to say we will *not* be open for business this year. With the passing of our dad, George, in 2014 we have decided to sell the property. We are experiencing all sorts of emotions about this, one of which is sadness at no longer being part of your holiday tradition. Thank you to everyone who took home one of our trees over the years. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Happy Holidays! ~ April Stearns, Dale Johnson, Kyle Johnson. ** PLEASE SHARE **

The number one food to buy organic is the apple. Our dad's apples are always 100% organic - which is why the deer and birds love them too. George always said a worm means it must be a tasty apple. ;) http://food52.com/blog/12463-the-14-foods-to-consider-buying-organic?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&utm_campaign=Social

Our cherry tree is waking up...

Absolutely gorgeous January day up on the mountain today! Thinking of my mom, Grete, as tomorrow she would have been 58 years old. She would have been biking on a day like this, or painting. Thinking of my dad today, too. George Johnson would have surely been out in his jeans and work gloves, dog by his side, tooling away on this or that project. Get out there and soak up some Vitamin D!

Thank you so much to everyone who came to the farm this weekend for our whirlwind tree sale! So many beautiful "wild and free" trees found their holiday homes. It was fun seeing old friends, meeting new people, and hearing how our dad would be remembered far and wide. If you missed coming out and have big regrets, send a message - I (April) may be able to help you still get a GHJ tree for Christmas. Happy Holidays, love April, Dale & Kyle!
