Seriously THANK YOU!
Everyone knows there is tons of competition in the Christmas world. I want to start this years message with simply thanking everyone that has helped us get to Christmas tree season #12. A Serious THANK YOU those that have been a part of this dream, journey & I hope they all know the impact that they have made in our community.
One of the core beliefs of Brungot farms is HOPE. Yes, sometimes we all hope to just get through times, but our meaning of HOPE is an action. “Help Other People Everyday” We want to HOPE, and we want to grow HOPE. Every time you purchase from Brungot Farms, you're doing just that.
The last few years, our hope has been challenged, we feel the same pressures personally & as a business as everyone else. The battle between money in, and money out plays out all year long for families, not just here in our local Cedar Park / Austin Metro area. But around the country and world.
One of the hardest things I do as a business owner every year is pricing Christmas trees & building the Strategy for keeping this dream alive. This year is exceptionally tough, but I find HOPE, and let it lead the decisions & direction. Our cost of Christmas trees since starting this journey has over doubled, our retail price has only gone up on average 20%. Yes, like all businesses & families we are feeling the squeeze.
Feedback that we have received on why people have not purchased for example. “We love the real Christmas tree, what hurts is when you go to buy the lights that you need, they cost double or more of what the tree costs, and we just can’t afford that right now.” This weighed heavy on my mind all off season. I've done some research, and we want to HOPE we have a solution. How about Brungot Farms add Christmas lights to the mix for the 2025 Christmas season.
The phrase “Be the Light” has stuck in my mind for months.
Now it’s time to put it into action.
Here’s the research:
So here’s the 2025 Plan:
With the addition of bringing wintergreen light products in, we are able to get some price relief in Christmas trees. So have lowered prices on all Christmas trees 4-5ft up to 9-10ft for 2025. This year’s pre-sale will again be 15% off Trees & Stands will be included in that savings. Here’s where the fun really begins. We have partnered with Wintergreen lights and we will offer 35% off light bundles for the pre sale as well. To keep things as simple as possible right now we are offering their most popular light, the M5 wide angle LED light in Warm White, Cool White & Multi Colored. As well we are offering one of their most popular lights those same colors in SoftTwinkle® LED Christmas Lights. These lights are amazing.
So what does this plan look like for the same view above:
Sizes above 12 - 13 feet
This year's tree locks have been a battle to say the least. We are stocked well 9 ft and under, however over that we've been doing lots of work. If you are needing tree's over 13 ft, please email us. We continue to work in that area, so we are not putting them on the website for ordering.
More to come in 2025
We have lots that we are working on as we ramp up for the 2025 season. We will launch Wreath Shipping, More Fundraisers with local organizations, New Maple Flavors & Bow Options. As well, more light options!
Thank you again
