Where To Get Your Christmas Tree in Butte County

By Maggie Bruno, M.S. CCC-SLP November 30, 2025

Now that Thanksgiving is over, you know what time it is: Christmas! Who am I kidding? I started putting up my Christmas decorations on November 1st. Now, we have a cat who loves plants, and will even eat artificial plants and cacti; so a Christmas tree is unfortunately out of the question. If you are cat-less, or have a better behaved cat than we do, here's your ultimate guide to picking out a live Christmas tree in Butte County.

Sierra Cascade Christmas Trees

2314 Pillsbury Road

Chico, CA 95926

Open 9AM-9PM Daily


We LOVE Sierra Cascade Christmas Trees. At first glance, this lot ticks all of my boxes because of the convenience. It's located in the parking lot of Trader Joe's in North Chico, and not only can you pick out your perfect tree here, you can also get it cut to optimize how your tree "drinks" water, pick up a tree stand and other decorations, and enjoy cookies and cocoa while the helpful staff load up your tree. But there is SO much more to Sierra Cascade. It's a long-standing Chico staple for the holidays; the owner's family has operated this lot in Chico for the past 40 years, and it shows. David is a member of the community, and knows how important it is to take care of your neighbors. From giving out trees every day, to going above and beyond to make sure each customer is happy with the quality and vitality of their tree, Sierra Cascade isn't just a business -- it's a tradition, and it can be your family's tradition, too.
