For five generations we’ve been growing things on our land. Sod, grass, gardens: all of it rooted in a simple belief that things worth doing are worth doing right.
You can get groceries delivered. You can get furniture delivered. You can get a stranger to walk your dog. But a real Christmas tree? In Ottawa? Until now, you had to go get it yourself.
That changes this season.
A new way to get your tree
This holiday season, the Mountainview family is delivering real, beautiful Christmas trees, Balsam and Fraser fir in three sizes, straight to your door in Ottawa or Gatineau. No lot. No standing around in the cold. No tying it to the roof and white-knuckling it home on the 417.
Just a real tree, at your door, ready to decorate.
For a family that’s been growing things on this land for five generations, it felt right to build something new with the long game in mind, and to do it the way we do everything else: properly.
Two classic varieties
We’re offering two of the most-loved real Christmas trees, each available in three sizes so you can find the right fit for your space:
- Fraser fir: the full, symmetrical shape most people picture when they think of a Christmas tree. It holds its needles well and gives you a tidy, even silhouette that shows off decorations beautifully.
- Balsam: the classic Canadian Christmas tree. A slightly more open, natural shape than Fraser, with that strong, fresh fir scent people love. Pick it if you want the house to smell like Christmas.
Whichever you choose, it’s the real thing. Because that’s the only thing worth delivering.
Handmade Christmas wreaths
Alongside trees, we’re making handmade Christmas wreaths this season, crafted by us right here on the Mountainview farm. We build them from pine, cedar, and spruce grown on our own land, on a full six-inch frame, so they arrive rich, thick, and unmistakably real. Not the flat, store-bought kind. Each one can be finished with your choice of decoration in white, blue, or red. And while our tree delivery is local for now, our wreaths ship right across Canada, so you can send a piece of the farm to family and friends anywhere in the country.
Why we built this
For five generations, our family has made its living growing things. Sod, grass, gardens, greenhouse crops, and the food that comes off the farm. Christmas trees and wreaths are a natural next step: products of nature, grown and made with care by our family that does this for a living. We have the land, the greenhouse, the trucks, and the team, and bringing a real tree and a handmade wreath to your door is simply the next thing we grow into.
We also have Christmas trees growing in our own fields right now. They won’t be ready for a few years, so in the meantime we’re starting by delivering locally grown trees while ours mature. That lets us build this part of the business the right way today, and lay the foundation for the day our own trees are ready to come home to yours.
But the idea is simple, and the gap is real. A real tree. Delivered. Done.
Frequently asked questions
What areas do you deliver to?
We’re delivering Christmas trees across Ottawa and Gatineau for our first season. Our handmade wreaths ship right across Canada, so you can send one anywhere in the country. Stay tuned for expanded tree-delivery zones in future years.
What type of trees do you carry?
We’re offering two classic varieties, Balsam and Fraser fir, each available in three sizes.
Do you deliver wreaths as well as trees?
Yes. We make our wreaths by hand right on the farm, from pine, cedar, and spruce grown on our own land, and we ship them across Canada, so they aren’t limited to our local tree-delivery area.
What’s the difference between Balsam and Fraser fir?
Mostly the look and the scent. Fraser fir has the full, symmetrical shape most people picture, with sturdy branches that hold heavier ornaments well. Balsam fir is the classic Canadian Christmas tree, with a slightly more open, natural shape and that strong, fresh fir scent people love. Both hold their needles well, so it really comes down to the style you’re after.
What sizes are available?
Each variety comes in three heights: 4, 5 and 6 feet, so you can find the right fit for your space and ceiling height.
How do I order?
Ordering is open now. Choose your tree and its height, add a tree stand or tree removal if you’d like, then pick your delivery day at checkout. Prefer to pick it up yourself? You can collect your tree at our farm in Quyon.
Who’s behind this?
This is a new holiday offering from the Mountainview family. Like everything we do at Mountainview, it’s built on the idea that things worth doing are worth doing right.
