See Our Hauling and clean out services web site.



Oldest Delivery Man in the World!!



We have the oldest delivery truck driver in the world. My father Don, is 85 and going on 86. He does many of our dropoffs for us. He will drive anywhere in the nation. He has made a trip this year to Truth Or Consequences NM to drop off equipment at our ranch and he brought back our Flying X Ranch rocks which we sell for landscaping.
When Don Delivers, we ask that you unload the truck. If you need us to plant, we will send our landscape crew to unload and plant.



We want to sell all the trees we can. (Of course!) Please understand however, that we can only ship your tree, shrub, or plant, from Highland Hill Farm when it is right for the particular selection and its destination, and it is the proper time of year.

Here's a humorous story about the "Joy of Giving Trees." It's a joy we know ranks right up there with the "Joy of Music," and the "Joy of Cooking." A regular customer asked advice on what would be a good gift for planting in Michigan in October. The customer wanted to anonymously furnish his best friend's sick best friend with something "joyous" to look at out the window during what could be a long recuperation at the home of a generous sister and brother-in-law. The customer imagined the smiling man directing the locating and planting of the gift tree, gaining from participating in the endeavor. We suggested the colorful Copper Beech Tree would make a great selection. We could not ship the tree, however.

Our customer used his computer and the wonderful Internets Google and Yahoo! Maps websites to find three landscaping nursery businesses in towns near the address he had for the sick man's sister. Well, the first telephone call he tried went to a hardware store, the second telephone call led to a polite conversation with what was a plants only garden-oriented nursery, and over the course of the next day, the telephone at the third place never got answered. More Internet searching proved fruitless, so he called that nice second place to ask for recommendations. As he called the fifth place, he was told they needed to check their stock. By the third day, our customer was told no Beech trees at all were available, but maybe a sixth place, known for being a huge "industrial strength" tree farm could help. They didn't advertise much because they didn't need to. On the fourth day, and the eighth phone call, after being on hold for about 10 minutes, our customer talked to the nice lady at the busy order desk and learned that the last large Tri-Color Beech Tree was on sale for 20% off the regular price. Wow! How grand, our customer thought. The twelve-foot tall tree was only... ...$389. Only more than twice, more than double to put it differently, than Highland Hill Farm's price would be. The smaller eight-foot tall trees were "only" $219. He decided to buy one anyway. His address, etc., his credit card, information, the name, address and zip code of where the tree was going, all were discussed. The tree would be delivered six days after his decision to send his friend a tree.

Only three hours spent on research and on the telephone for what he originally thought would be a "simple, five-minute finagle," would at last yield the "joy of giving a tree." Not to be so. On the eve of the sixth day, he found on his answering machine a phone call from the deliveryman for the beech tree. The address he had been given ended in the town of Franklin, zip code 49635. There was no house with that number anywhere to be found on the street in the address. Great! On the seventh day, back at his computer, our customer discovered that Franklin, Michigan has the zip code 48025, and Frankfort, MI has the zip code 49635. It's a mere 215 miles away. Didn't our customer tell the order desk lady the zip code?

Anonymous gifts are the highest form of gift-giving, don't you know?

Five hours I've spent and I'll probably owe the tree farm the $65 for the attempted plant delivery. Ol' King Midas turned everything he touched into gold, but he had nothing on me. I'm really a natural.
