Fresh Cut Christmas Trees
The Sights & Scents of the Season.
There’s something about the beauty and scent of a fresh cut Christmas tree at Christmastime that brings a special warmth to the holiday season. According to the Michigan Christmas Tree Association, over 25 million fresh trees are purchased each Christmas. We are proud to offer five varieties. Wondering which would be perfect for your holiday decorating? Let’s take a look at the differences.
