Aahhh. The nostalgic fragrance of a fresh cut Christmas tree. It is a simple pleasure of the holiday season that no candle or room refresher can replace.
Across North Carolina, the end of November signals the start of tree selling season – a span of a few weeks where more than 900 Christmas tree farmers generate the revenue from an entire year’s worth of work. Many of the trees they sell have been a “work in progress” for these farmers for as many as 10 to 15 years.
NC State Extension has a long history of working with our state’s Christmas tree industry, helping to build North Carolina into the No. 2 tree producing state in the nation. Join us on Homegrown to take a quick look at the North Carolina Christmas tree industry, then head out to claim your live tree today!
