I drive around the county all week long visiting all of our nurseries and growing grounds to organize production of our plant material.  Quite often I will have to run in to Home Depot or brave the crowds at Costco for some tool or first aid kit or case of water.  I have been amazed at how it seems as though the holiday gear comes earlier and earlier.  I think I saw Christmas wrapping paper at Costco in October!

It’s Christmas Tree Season at Evergreen Nursery – and just at the right time!

Wow!  We are up in Washington state. It is really beautiful.  Our quest has been to find beautiful Noble Fir trees for the upcoming 2009 Christmas season. It took some traveling, but we struck gold.  We tagged some really nice ones. I have included a photo below of one of the beauties that we tagged out in the field, personally.  Being out here in these fields and enjoying the fresh scent of  these "real" trees, reminds me why I do not buy an artificial tree. Just cannot compare the two.  It looks to be a great year for "real" trees.
