Christmas Trees by ACS
Real trees,from real people.
Alex has been selling real Christmas trees in Alton and the surrounding area for over ten years, and every one is locally grown near Winchester. For most of the year he’s out with ACS Services, working as an agricultural, equestrian and groundworks contractor around Hampshire. Every November the banner goes back up outside the Assembly Rooms, the netting machine comes out, and Benson takes up his post among the trees.
This year Alton opens on Friday 27 November, the night of the Alton lights switch-on, with the other pitches opening the next day. Alex is providing the big Christmas tree in the town centre. Come and choose yours in person, or tell us what you’re after and we’ll have it ready.

Good questions
How do I pay?
When you collect your tree at the pitch, or when we deliver it. We take cash and card. Ordering online just sends Alex an email with your order; nothing is paid online.
Is my tree reserved as soon as I order?
Your order is a request until Alex replies to confirm it. That's because we do sell out: in 2023 and 2025 some sizes had gone by mid-December. Order early and you'll be first in line.
Can you deliver?
Yes. Delivery is free within 5 miles of each of our pitches, and further away a delivery fee may apply. Choose delivery when you order and pop in your postcode: the form tells you straight away if you're in the free area. Brookwood is collection only.
Do you net and trim the trees?
Yes. Every tree can go through our netting machine so it travels home tidy, and if it's going up straight away we'll take an inch or so off the base for you. Just ask.
Where are your trees grown?
Locally, near Winchester. We've been selling them in Alton and the surrounding area for over ten years.
When are you open?
Alton opens on Friday 27 November, the night of the Alton lights switch-on. Lower Farringdon, Herriard, Brookwood and Bramdean open on Saturday 28 November. We're open until the trees sell out. As stock goes our other pitches close, but Alton is always the last one open. It's a busy time of year, so it's always worth giving Alex a call.
What do the coloured tags mean?
They tell you the grade and size at a glance. Premium trees have a different colour for each height: yellow 4 to 5ft, blue 5 to 6ft, pink 6 to 7ft, orange 7 to 8ft and green 8 to 9ft (larger Premium trees on request). Classic trees have a red tag and come from 5 to 9ft. Quirky trees have a white tag or none, from 4 to 9ft.
What sizes do you have?
Premium from 4 to 9ft (larger on request), Classic from 5 to 9ft and Quirky from 4 to 9ft. Use “Will it fit?” on the trees page to find the right height for your ceiling.
What if it's pouring with rain?
We're open unless the weather is extreme, and Herriard is undercover. In bad weather it's worth ringing Alex before you set off, and we can deliver your tree whatever the weather.
