Register your interest to purchase a pine sapling from The Party Tree, the centre of Hobbiton.
Trees and nature influenced Tolkein greatly whilst writing and it is thought that the fate of The Party Tree was inspired by a similar event that took place at Mill-Pool in Sarehole, a willow tree than Tolkein used to climb. Fortunately the tree we see in the films stayed standing in this iconic set.
New Zealand has some very strict seed export laws, but as this was the birthplace of The Famous Tree Company, we will do everything we can to be able to offer saplings from this tree.
