Roseburg, Ore. -- Christmas tree permits will be available from the Bureau of Land Management’s Roseburg District Office from November 20, through December 22, 2017. By being good neighbors, supporting traditional land uses such as grazing, and providing access to hunting, fishing, and other recreational opportunities like Christmas trees from public lands, the BLM continues to serve the American family.
The cost for a single tree up to 12 feet high is $5.00. There is a limit of three trees per household. No commercial permits will be issued. The permit tag authorizes purchasers to cut their own tree(s) on a self-serve basis in either the Swiftwater or South River Field Offices.
Permits and maps are available at the Roseburg BLM Office, located at 777 N.W. Garden Valley Blvd. Office hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Other locations are Myrtle Creek City Hall, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and the U.S. Forest Service Office in Glide (North Umpqua Ranger District) from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.
