Real Christmas trees Dublin area

Enrico Palazzo

It appears that Ikea very recently decided to discontinue offering real Christmas trees (They had the 2023 offer already up online a few weeks ago), so it's time to look for alternatives. I did a quick search on the internet, but so far have found either some rather pricey offers or better ones, but relatively far from Dublin, e.g. in Wicklow. My preference is to be allowed to pick from a lot of unpacked trees to avoid disappointment at home, which is why I would rather not buy from supermarkets. I suspect the best places are not advertised online, or at least not where I would look for them, so if anyone knows of a good one and cares to share it here it would be much appreciated.

blue note

I've used the Malahide allotments for a few years and they're always nice trees. €60 for a 6 foot tree - seems to be in line with what they cost locally, I don't know about nationally. I've no interest in driving half an hour somewhere each way to save €20.

It appears that the real firs might be coming back to Ikea this year https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/p/abies-nordmanniana-christmas-tree-80228363/ No sign of the usual voucher yet, but even without it it's still half the market price at €29.
