The History of the Farm
Sprouffske Trees, Inc. began in 1965 when Fred Sprouffske planted the first Douglas fir seedlings to grow Christmas Trees on his farm.
He had previously leased 20 acres to Hoffert Tree Co.
and thought it looked like an interesting endeavor.
In 1966, he spoke to each of his four children and the Sprouffske Tree Co.,
a partnership of the 5 families had its beginning
with the first trees sold in 1972.
New Generations
By the year 1978, the partnership became a corporation with wholesale and retail (u-cut) trees being sold along with swags and assorted Christmas items in the “Tree House” (retail sales area).
Of the original founders, Fred and Ethel-Faye, Larry and Mary Sprouffske, Bill Roberts, Sandi Sprouffske, and Johnie Creamer are now deceased.
In the last few years, one of the original families, daughter Nancy, retired from Sprouffske Trees. The owners are the remaining families:
Jerry Sprouffske, Karen Creamer, Jonathan and Shelley Sprouffske,
and Darren and Alisa Sprouffske.
The Sprouffske Boys
