We just got a beautiful Colorado blue spruce at Hilltop Tree Farm in Brookston. It’s about 20 minutes from Duluth on Highway 2 going toward Floodwood. They also have sleds, saws, and hot chocolate. If you have a larger group, they can pull you around on a hay wagon. Very friendly family. We will definitely return!
Also, apparently the Forest Service allows Christmas-tree cutting in the Superior National Forest for a minimal fee.
But, again, the above is just notes from a post from last year, so some of the info might be dated. Follow the link for more details and opinions related to the potentially dated information.
Hi! My husband and I own Abrahamson’s Tree farm! We are located at 5933 Howard Gnesen Rd. in Duluth, just past the Lismore Rd. You can come and cut your own off the farm- we provide saws and hot cocoa. If you have any questions call 218-391-8963. Hope to see you!

There is a million-foot tree in my yard that you can have. But if you cut it down and it falls on my house, I will sue you.
As Paul stated, the Superior National Forest allows you to cut your own tree for $5.
There are some rules though, you cannot leave more than a 12″ stump so no cutting the tops off trees.
This is an outdated link, but whatever:

Walmart trees
Thanks spy.
B-man? WTH is this link to Walmart? I vote we censor that post on the grounds that the trees were probably chopped down by some 7 year-old in China.
I kid.
On a related note, I purchased some wild caught Alaskan Salmon only to find out that while it was caught in Alaska, it was packaged in China.
*in a Garth Algar voice* EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Same with the tuna at more than $5 a tin: Vietnam.
Just trollin. Merry Christmas.
