Christmas Tree Tagging--
Sat., October 12th!

Join us at Bees & Trees for what is likely our very last Christmas tree tagging event EVER!  That's right, we anticipate that after this year, we will be sold out of the Christmas trees we've grown here on the farm.  No worries though, we'll still continue selling those gorgeous Fraser Firs that Jeff brings back from Southwest VA.

So plan on visiting us Saturday, October 12th and reserve your tree while the weather is warmer-- hopefully not wet--and the tree selection is still amazing. 

The tree reservation fee is a non-refundable $25 that goes against the cost of the tree.  Tree cutting begins the day after Thanksgiving, Friday, November 29th at 10 AM.

Check back here for more details!

Tasting Room Coming Spring 2025 to
Bees & Trees Farm

After weeks of social media teasing, Bees & Trees owners, Teresa & Jeff Gregson, announced during the Culpeper County Harvest Days Farm Tour, their collaboration with Son of a Bear Ciders to build a tasting room at Bees & Trees in the Spring of 2025.

Son of a Bear Ciders is owned and operated by Cary and Rick McMahon owners of Teaghlaigh Vineyard in Rapidan, VA.   McMahon” means “son of a bear” in Irish Gaelic and “Teaghlaigh,” pronounced “tay-la,” means “family” in Gaelic.  They have truly infused their  Irish heritage and their love of family into every drop of every variety they make.

"We are thrilled to have this wonderful company join us here at the farm," said owner, Jeff Gregson.  "Theirs is a small,  family-owned and operated company--like ours--and they are all about customer service.  We can't imagine better people to work with or a company that's a better fit for our our farm."

The Gregsons own and operate The Farm Store at Bees & Trees and have been selling the Son of a Bear line of ciders and cysers for a number of years now.

"We always loved  doing tastings with SOAB's products," said Teresa Gregson.  "People who've never tasted their ciders or cysers are drawn to their flavors and smoothness after the very first sip". 

"We call it the perfect pairing," said Jeff, "and we look forward to welcoming them here permanently this Spring!"

Soon you will be able to identify which weekends they will be selling at Bees & Trees by checking their website at SonOfABearCiders.com or this website.

Fox 5 DC Names Bees & Trees One of Five "Must See" Spots
In the Culpeper Area!

Bees & Trees Farm was recently designated one of the top five best places in the Culpeper, VA--defined as a "must see" if you are in the area by Fox 5 DC.  Obviously, owners, Jeff and Teresa Gregson were thrilled with the designation.

Click here to watch the video.

"Nothing can prepare you for a compliment like this," said Teresa Gregson.  "We have tried to create an atmosphere on the farm that brings people together and infuses joy in the lives of our guests, and to find out that other people like what we have created is tremendously satisfying."

Featured in the brief video clip are the farm's signage for the store, driveway, one of its goats (Sebastian), their honeybees, a number of their hens, their farm store, their Airbnb and even their event Gazebo!

"They certainly packed a lot in the 40 second clip," said Jeff Gregson, "but that clip really gives you a good sense of what it's like pulling into our farm and what you'll see once you get here!"

When it all started--

The Gregson's purchased their 43-acre farm 11 years ago and have tried to improve the farm's agri-business offerings to the public each year they have been open.

"We're just a big ole work in progress," said Teresa.  "We believe if you're not constantly evolving, you're probably missing opportunities."

Bees & Trees first opened a Christmas store in 2013 and made it year around selling local wines, hard cider and specialty food products and gifts in  2015. They added their  gardens in 2016 and 2017. 

In 2020, they began construction on the "The Garden View Suite," their Airbnb, and completed it in the fall of 2021. 

They began  building out their event space (aptly named "The Gazebo") in the spring of 2022 and finished landscaping, installing a paved walkway and all the needed electrical work in 2023--they are about to host their fist wedding this summer and they say there are even bigger things to come in the future.

"We consider ourselves a gathering place, said Teresa, "a place to bring people together, share special times and create meaningful memories.  The more opportunities we find and develop that embrace that concept, the better Bees & Trees will be.

"One of my favorite sayings is the best is yet to come," said Teresa, "and I believe it with with all of my heart."
