Introduction
Bishop and Mathews has been a major supplier of Christmas trees to wholesale and retail outlets throughout California for over 80 years. Because of our long history selling trees, our roots run deep in the Christmas tree community. We have built relationships with some of the finest tree growers in the Pacific northwest. Many of these farms have been growing trees for Bishop and Mathews for over 40 years.
At present, the trees we specialize in growing are Noble Fir, Douglas Fir, Nordman Fir, and Grand Fir. Occasionally, we are able to aquire Turkish Fir from one of our growers.
In order to better assist you in starting up your retail Christmas tree operation, we have created a comprehensive, step by step booklet, that guides new retailers through the startup process. If you are interested in receiving a free copy of this booklet, click here and fill out our request form. We will send the booklet electronically, right to your e-mail box.
Our focus is on developing relationships with independent retailers, helping them to get established, and creating long term relationships with them. Non profit groups such as Boy Scouts and churches have become a large segment of our repeat business. Some of our customers have been buying trees from us for over 40 years.
All of our trees at present are shipped in 53 ft. covered vans. This insures that they arrive at the lot in the freshest condition possible. Approximately, 600 average sized trees can be loaded in a van.
