4 E’s Trees is named after Frank and Marge Evans four sons: Don, Ron, Larry, and Steve. Ron Evans now runs the farm.

“My family began getting our Christmas trees from 4E's in about 1965. We always looked forward to the Saturday after Thanksgiving because that's when we tagged our tree. I remember tromping through your fields through snow and rain to find just the right tree and we always did.” –I. E., customer
