Tying a Christmas Tree to the top of the roof of your car is quite easy. Our farmers are experts and will show you lift the tree properly, how to tie a knot, and secure it to a vehicle without a roof-rack - We explain it all in this short video.
We offer twine buckets at all our parking locations. Pull out 6 arm lengths, then tie in a knot as shown. Do that again, and you are ready to go for securing the front and rear of the tree.
Jones Family Farms is located in Shelton, CT. With 400 acres of crops, from Strawberries, Blueberries, Pumpkins, Christmas Trees and our award winning wine, a visit to our farm is unique for every season.

After not being able to get my tree on my car last year and shoving it inside, this was super helpful. Thank you.

I have frameless windows on my car Does it still work

@JonesFamilyFarms Жыл бұрын

Yes this will work on frameless windows, but be cautious with exactly where and how tight the twine is pulled against the window's gaskets so you do not tear them. The only car we have an issue with is the Tesla Model X with the Falcon Doors (or I guess a Delorean if we ever saw one!). - Farmer Tom

Face it the other way so it doesn't dry out

Why not just tie one loop at the end and save rope?

@JonesFamilyFarms Жыл бұрын

We try to make it simple for guests with consistency between the two ropes (front and back), plus having a loop means double the twine to handle the pressure. We use sisal twine as a natural plant fiber for the work. - Farmer Tom

You should show a video of you tying a tree down in a full parking lot with a foot n half of room on each side with people getting in or out of there cars etc that’s a pain in the but . Ps lil tip when placing tree on roof do Not roll or slide it you will scratch the paint I place my arm under and slide the tree like that so it’s not scratching the car . I’m also 6’5” so I can get away with that . You scratch a roof and you can forget that tip. I like the tip money

Notice the tarp on the vehicle in the video.

We do have a tarp on the roof in the video = no scratching. - Farmer Tom
