Where To Find A Christmas Tree In 2020 Near Johns Creek

Johns Creek, GA — As the coronavirus pandemic threatens a long list of 2020’s beloved holiday traditions, it may still be possible to hunt for the perfect Christmas tree this year — and do it safely.

Did you know that at least 25 million real Christmas trees are sold each year across America, and currently, 350 million are growing in all 50 U.S. states? During this unprecedented year, Christmas tree lots and choose-and-cut farms nationwide are taking precautions as COVID-19 cases rise to ensure patrons can select a tree with minimal risk to their health and safety.

In fact, the National Christmas Tree Association has created a 2020 guide containing recommendations and best practices for Christmas tree sellers to follow, including frequently sanitizing items and areas such as hand saws, tree cart handles, countertops, door handles and restrooms.

Tree lot operators and choose-and-cut farms "must protect the health and safety of their employees, provide customers with the confidence they need so they can enjoy selecting a tree without risk and demonstrate to state and local officials they are conducting business responsibly," the association wrote in its guide.

Maximum head counts and touchless, paperless payment systems are also being encouraged at the farms.
