For your tree: Harrogate Christmas Tree Centre
After trading for more than 40 years, and as the leading retailer of cut Christmas trees in Harrogate, these guys really know their stuff.
With the widest selection of strong and low needle retention trees, Harrogate Christmas Tree Centre can offer you advice on how to keep your tree looking good until the New Year.
The company is also a member of the British Christmas Tree Growers Association, and pride themselves on a high level of customer service.
For your decorations: Rudfarlington Farm
The Christmas Barn at Rudfarlington Farm is now selling top quality Christmas decorations, lighting, ornaments and gifts.
There are several ranges of themed decorations, plus all the extras you’ll need to turn your home into the perfect Christmas setting.
For that lovely Christmassy smell: Olivia Jade Candle Company
For a wonderful festive scent in your home, try the orange, cinnamon and cranberry candle from Olivia Jade Candle Company.
The fruity, floral combination gets more pronounced as the candle starts to burn, with great depth and roundness.
All Olivia Jade candles are handmade, vegan friendly, and cruelty free.
For cooking your Christmas dinner: Cooking Fantastic
Tucked away in Killinghall, Cooking Fantastic is a true hidden gem. With an extensive array of baking and cooking tools and essentials, you’ll find everything you need to cook up a brilliant Christmas dinner.
Don’t miss Christmas items from Yorkshire suppliers like the fabulous red table runner (pictured above with the roasting tins), or stocking fillers like the ‘knob grabbers’… for lifting the lid off a casserole dish!
