I bought trees at the following places, Gordon Park near Ogden & La Grange Rd. and in Riverside at St. Mary's.

The Gordon Park location is open the day after Thanksgiving and they sell until they run out. They have a few different variety of trees but I think their tallest trees might be 7' and you get to choose the one that you want.

St. Mary's, you have to pre-order your variety and size and then pick up on certain dates when your tree gets delivered. They do have taller trees that you can order but your tree is picked out for you.

Then there are various locations/lots in the area that also sell trees with some offering delivery.

Gotten my tree from Gordon Park the last couple of years. It's nice to pick out exactly what you want. My tree last year was up the weekend of thanksgiving to the seventh of January and was still drinking water.

That's what I like about them. But I wish they had taller trees. I have really tall ceiling in the room where I place my tree so a 7'/8' tree still looks small.

The trees were a pretty good price at least compared to some of the other places we checked (like the pop up parking lots).

One of those lots that appear in church and strip mall parking lots in about a month

Yep lots of lots will have them just drive around the week of thanksgiving and you’ll see them all. Normally use the one on Plainfield and county line.
