For those of us who buy a live Christmas tree, it is almost time to make the trip to our local nursery to pick out this year‘s living room addition. But where did those trees come from? Join us at the table as we discuss The Christmas Tree Farms of western North Carolina. Frasier fir trees from North Carolina are shipped to every state in the United States, the Caribbean islands, Mexico, Canada, Bermuda, and Japan.  20% of all Christmas trees in the US come from North Carolina!  Mentioned in this Episode:  The Biltmore Estate: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/steel-magnolias-podcast/id1442852139?i=1000514060615“Why Christmas Trees Aren’t Perfect” (Children’s Book): https://amzn.to/3R1OtRC Stay Connected:Subscribe to our newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/e3cef217a5e7/sweetnewsText a friend with a link to the show https://pod.link/1442852139Support this Show: https://app.redcircle.com/shows/272163da-d825-415c-8092-bd907aba8ebd/donations Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/steel-magnolias-podcast/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
