Christmas Trees In the Dacula Area: Local Farms

DACULA, GA— As the U.S. recovers from the coronavirus pandemic and looks back on the hardship of last year’s holiday season — which involved a lot of social distancing — families in 2021 will reunite and begin the hunt for the right Christmas tree.

Some 350 million are growing in all 50 U.S. states, and at least 25 million of them are cut and purchased each year.

The American Christmas Tree Association advises shoppers to get a tree earlier than usual this year. The supply of trees will be tight due to supply chain delays and a poor growing season in the Pacific Northwest.

If a real Christmas tree is on your wish list this year, here's a selection of trusted tree farms near Dacula:

• Jacks Creek Farms
• Kinsey Family Farm & Plant Nursery
• Randy's Christmas Tree Farm
• Bottoms Christmas Tree Farm
• Randy's Pumpkin Patch
• Thompson's Tree Farm
• Scottsdale Farms
• Cooper's Tree Farm

Getting the most out of your real Christmas tree takes a bit of patience and practice. Here are a few tips to remember, courtesy of the National Christmas Tree Association:
