About Yetter Road Tree Farm

Tree Farm History

Rooted in family, service, and tradition since 1974.

What began as John and Irene Umrysz’s shared love for planting trees has grown into a lasting family legacy. From humble beginnings in the 1960s to officially opening Yetter Road Tree Farm in 1974, their dedication to nature and community lives on through their son Lee and grandson Tom. Today, three generations later, the Umrysz family continues to nurture the same spirit of care, hard work, and holiday tradition that started it all.

The Tree Farm Today

Growing trees and traditions for the next generation.

Now in its third generation, Yetter Road Tree Farm is led by Tom Ackley Umrysz, whose lifelong passion for farming began before he could even reach the pedals of the tractor. Today, Tom is passing that same love of the land to his children, Ariya and Jackson, while continuing to advance the farm through his work with the Connecticut Christmas Tree Growers Association. With a deep commitment to science, sustainability, and family tradition, Tom ensures every tree — from Balsam to Fraser Fir — is grown with care, pride, and plenty of room to grow.

Join us at the farm for a special afternoon with local author Adella Haggerty, who will be reading from her inspiring children’s book Railings and Ramps. A longtime Special Education Teacher at Groton Public Schools’ Transition Academy, Adella’s story beautifully celebrates kindness, inclusion, and the power of small acts to create big change.

Railings and Ramps follows young Jonathan as he discovers how compassion and community can make his family’s country store more welcoming for everyone. The book features charming illustrations by Caitlin Shaffer (Reiter), who grew up right here in Mystic and attended Butler Elementary, Cutler Middle School, and St. Bernard’s High School.

Books will be available for purchase, and Adella will be signing copies after the reading. Gather your family, sip some cocoa, and enjoy a heartwarming story about perseverance, empathy, and making the world a little brighter—just in time for the holiday season.
