Ruth

Paul’s better half Ruth Haley helped him establish the business, and she has a vast knowledge of what our customers (both retail and wholesale) need.

Ruth and Paul bought the 800 acre+ Wathegar Farm in Caithness Scotland in 1992 to grow their own trees. 

Evald

Evald knows a good tree and is frequently requested for his expertise each year at Pines farm.

From Longtown, Cumbria Evald has worked for the business for 35 years and is always very happy to help. 

Big Dave

Dave is easy to spot at 6’7 and is a seasoned nurseryman and grower with tree expertise.

From Harwood, he has known Paul since he was born and has worked with us for over 30 years. 

Matthew

Paul and Ruth’s son Matthew who was literally born into the business is usually found modelling a festive Star Wars jumper.

He will help you find the perfect tree for your family and make sure it gets to you as quick as possible - and might be persuaded to demonstrate how you can ‘net’ yourself in the tree machines…

Little Miss Haley

Matthew’s little girl and the apple of Paul’s eye. We can’t guarantee Santa’s little helper will be on hand when you visit (depends on bedtime) but if she is you’re in for a treat.

We start them young on the farm!
