If you are looking to buy a real tree this year, now is the time to do it!
A Christmas tree farmer tells USDA, it will be best to shop early this year. Demand increased during the pandemic last year and growers expect the trend to continue.

It might take a little more hunting and a little more money this year. Trees are expected to be about 10 percent higher this year.
