Rated 5 Stars| Nationwide Service | Freshness Guaranteed
Good Elf delivers real Christmas trees across Bishop's Stortford. We have done it since 2004. Every tree is cut to order from British farms and brought straight to your door. We cover CM22 and CM23. Delivery from £5.95 on smaller packages. Next-day delivery available. For christmas trees Bishops Stortford families trust, Good Elf brings the farm to your front room.
A fresh cut tree drinks well and holds its needles for weeks. Nothing sits in a cold store waiting for an order. That is the difference between a real Christmas tree that still looks good on Christmas Day and one that has dropped half its needles by week two.
Every tree comes from the same premium grade stock. We do not split our supply into budget and premium lines. You get the best we have. Twenty years of December rounds through Thorley, Bishop's Park and Hockerill stand behind every tree we send out.
Bishop's Stortford sits in our home county. Our own team delivers here, not a courier. If you are out, we find somewhere safe to leave your tree. Call us after 10am on the day on 0203 519 9997 and we will give you an estimated arrival time.

Caring For Your Bishop's Stortford Christmas Tree
Take a fresh cut off the base before you stand the tree. About an inch is enough. This reopens the vessels that sealed during transport and lets the tree drink. Fill the stand with water on day one and top it up every day. A tree in a warm room can drink a litre a day.
Keep the tree away from radiators and direct sun. Heat dries a tree out fast. The slower it dries, the less needle drop you see. A fresh tree kept well can last six weeks. If yours goes up on the 1st of December, it should still look good on Christmas Day.
The Norway Spruce needs more water than the Nordmann. Check the stand every morning. If the base runs dry even for a day, the tree seals over and stops drinking. Once it stops drinking, needle drop speeds up. Top the water up before bed and again when you wake.
After Christmas, East Herts District Council collects real Christmas trees for recycling in January. You can set yours out for kerbside collection or drop it at the recycling point. Check the East Herts District Council website for your date. Remove all decorations and tinsel first. You can also compost a real tree at home if you have the space. It breaks down fast and feeds the soil for next year.
Bishop's Stortford at Christmas
Bishop's Stortford keeps its old market town charm through December. The streets around Market Square and North Street fill with shoppers, and the River Stort runs quiet through the middle of it. The Thursday and Saturday markets keep the town busy all season. A real tree at home rounds it off.
Christmas Lights Switch-On
The Bishop's Stortford Christmas lights switch-on takes place in the town centre in late November, with a special guest leading the countdown to the tree lights coming on. A two-hour run of music and entertainment fills the streets around it.

The Christmas Fayre takes over North Street, Market Square, Potter Street and South Street in early December. Over a hundred stalls line the pedestrianised streets with music and entertainment, and Santa pops by to wish the town a happy Christmas.
Santa Visits and Carols
Santa visits South Mill Arts on the first weekends of December and again in the days before Christmas. Holy Trinity Church on South Street holds festive music and carols with the brass band. Churches across the town run their own carol services too.
