Best Christmas tree farm in San Diego! Searched all over for a beautiful and reasonably priced Christmas tree and found it here! We needed two, small and big — both were perfect. On top of that, the service was excellent! Bri welcomed us and took her time to help us pick out the perfect trees. Highly recommend them! Very, very nice people :) thank you!

We stopped in looking for a 5 – 6 foot Noble Fir and were told they were expecting a delivery within an hour. We were told the price was $ 50. When we returned the same employee who told us about the delivery helped us. He was very nice and walked around showing us where to find what we were looking for. He cut open a few trees for us to look at. The first tree was closer to 7 feet but were told if we wanted it he would sell it to us for $ 50. We passed on this tree and he helped us find another one that we liked. «This one really is 6 foot» we were told.
We went to the counter to pay as the employee who was helping us put the tree into our stand. The woman behind the counter said the truck that had just come in did not have any 5 – 6 foot trees on it, only 6 – 7 foot trees and this tree was $ 70. I told the woman that we had come in twice looking for a 5 – 6 foot tree and this was shown to us as a 5 – 6 foot tree and that this is a poor way to operate a business. She told me that they will have no problem selling the tree to someone else and there would be no budging on the price.
It is always nice being told that your business is not important because another sucker will be coming in right behind you. I guess its easier to get away with shady business practices when you will be packed up and gone within 2 weeks. If your pricing is not flexible and you are going to measure your trees with zero flexibility on size, let your employees know not to make any deals out on the sales floor. Back to the Home Depot tree lot for me next year.

In looking for a 9 – 10 ft tree, I started my search at Home Depot. For 9−10ft Noble Firs (the larger end of the spectrum at Home Depot), the price was around $ 130. They had a fair amount of trees, but a vast majority had large brown areas and appeared very dry. Additionally, instead of having trees standing around for you to look at, the trees were careless thrown into piles or laid onto the ground. I decided to check out Valley View right around the corner in the Sprouts parking lot to see what they had to offer.
The first thing you’ll notice is that all of the trees here are on stands, allowing you to see the tree in all of its full and relaxed glory. A station exists where they can «frost» your tree, to make it look snow-​covered. I skipped it, because there’s no way it doesn’t make a huge mess. If you’re looking for a big tree, you’ve got to come here. I price checked a massive ~15ft tree, and it was around $ 280. Not cheap, but not outrageous. Again, my search was for something a little smaller, so I spent some time finding one around 9 – 10 ft, which tended to be on the small side of trees here (though there were a fair number of smaller 6−7ft trees as well. I ended up going with a 9ft Noble Fir and paid around $ 110. The tree was marked 7−8ft, so I saved a little money by paying the lower size bracket. The tree IS actually 9ft, though. Additionally, its fresh, healthy, full and round, and makes San Diego look a little more like Christmas.
All in all great experience. The folks working are all very kind and friendly and make the entire experience a great time.
TLDR; Valley View Christmas Tree Farms has excellent trees that are fresh and green for prices comparable and sometimes even better than the big box stores.

Great trees, great service & great prices. My tree lasted through mid January last year. I will never buy another tree at Home Depot or Lowes. This lot may not be as cheap as the big box stores but, you get what you pay for.

This is my second year getting our tree from this lot. We love their trees. They look great, smell amazing and last a long time! They seriously have the freshest trees ever. I found out that the trees are on the lot just days after they are cut them down, unlike other places that I have been where they were cut down weeks to a month ago. This year I found a deal for their trees and I got 50% off! Here is a link:
