Where To Find Christmas Trees In 2020 Near Albany

Albany, CA — As the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic threatens some of America's most beloved holiday traditions in 2020, it might still be possible to hunt for the right Christmas tree — and do it safely.

Did you know that at least 25 million real Christmas trees are sold each year across the U.S., and currently, 350 million are growing in all 50 states.? And despite these unprecedented times, the tree market is still up and running in 2020. Christmas tree lots and choose-and-cut farms nationwide are taking precautions as coronavirus cases rise to ensure shoppers can select their favorite tree with minimal health and safety risk.

In fact, the National Christmas Tree Association has circulated a special guide with recommendations and best practices for Christmas tree providers to follow. Sellers are advised to frequently sanitize items such as hand saws and tree cart handles, as well as countertops, restrooms and other areas.

Special signage and social-distancing rules are also being encouraged at the farms.
