“More people are buying fresh Christmas trees now than ever before and then you have a housing crash in the 2000s years ago where there as a glut of trees then and then guys slowed in planting”.

The trees will be on display from Friday, December 1 until Sunday, December 3 at All Saints CE Church on Northallerton High Street and have been decorated by community groups ranging from Brownies to bell ringers, hospitals, schools and charities.

The Christmas holiday season will begin at Don’s Tree Farm in Greenwood Black Friday, Nov. 24.

For the families finding their tree Saturday morning, they searched, got their tree freshly sawed, netted, and tied to their auto to take home that day.

“This is what we do”, Patterson said.

Raising and harvesting Connecticut Grown Christmas trees and holiday greens also provides a number of environmental benefits, said Christopher Martin, Connecticut’s State Forester with the Dept. of Energy and Environmental Protection.

“It’s a place I would like to take my family, that’s always been the criteria for what I do”, New said.
