The Legend of the Christmas TreeOn the day of Christ's birth
all came with gifts to bear, except a little tree who cried for he had nothing to share. Hearing his distress God's angel from above, Sent twinkling stars to grace the tree and shine with all their love. Evergreens appeared upon the limbs once bare, the gift of everlasting life that Jesus would declare. So remember when you see a Christmas tree so bright that God's love shine for us in every twinkling light. Author Unknown |
Headed Home.
On October 11, 2016, Greg's father, James "Lawton" Morgan went home to be with our Lord. He absolutely loved Christmas. Many of you may remember his and Vonn's Christmas light display at their old house on H.D. Atha Road in Monroe. He always would go all out for Christmas. He loved seeing the smile and twinkle in the children's eyes as they giggled in aww at the Christmas Light display. Our Christmas Light displays will always be in memory of Peepaw and we will work every year to make it bigger and better than the year before because that's how Peepaw would want it.

In 2016, a wonderful man, Bill Murray, passed away. Mr. Murray was the cultivator of the Murray Cypress. He was also the first to have a Choose and Cut Christmas Tree Farm in Georgia. He shared much of his wisdom with us as we started our little farm 5 years ago. To us he was Father Christmas. He will be greatly missed and we pray for Mrs. Sarah and the Murray family this holiday season.

Our Trees.Due to the nation wide Fraser fir shortage, we can only get a limited amount of Fraser firs. We have carefully selected a specific number of trees in the field available to prevent over harvesting of trees for the upcoming years. Please do not cut down trees that are not tagged. We may have to close the tree farm earlier than planned for the season to prevent over harvesting.
At Yuletide Christmas Tree Farm, we grow three types of trees. We mostly grow Murray Cypress trees, they are a beautiful green, they do not shed needles because they are cypresses. They are a sister to the Leyland Cypress but are a heartier and healthier tree. We also have Carolina Sapphires which is a full tree. They do not grow as fast as a Murray so they are "chunky and fat" trees. Blue Ice are really cool because once we get a good frost they turn a beautiful frosted white/blue hue and they smell amazing. Fraser firs are of course what we all think a Christmas Tree should look like, that's why they are the number 1 seller in the U.S. Our Fraser firs are brought in from North Carolina because they can't grow down here. The farm we buy them from always provide us with only the best. Come on out and see our beautiful selection of trees!

Not to mention, they smell amazing! If you are interested in placing an order for your wreath or garland a deposit is required to insure pick up. Wreaths and garland will be available to the public after Nov. 19th. Sorry, no extra clipping will be available this year due to the Fraser fir tree shortage.
