Goderie’s Tree Farm

Goderie’s Tree Farm is a family-run Christmas tree farm and nursery at 338 County Highway 106 in Johnstown, established in 1970 on land the family bought around 1939 after their Northampton farm was flooded to create the Great Sacandaga Lake. The farm covers about 250 acres of nursery stock, Christmas trees and woodlots in the Adirondack foothills.

Families can cut their own tree or choose from hundreds of pre-cut trees from 3 to 18 feet, brought in fresh daily. For more than 25 years the farm has let customers pre-tag a tree in the fall and set a pickup date. The nursery side, started in 1984, grows stock hardy enough for upstate winters and installs trees for homes and businesses.
