Where To Find Christmas Trees In 2020 Near Brockton

Brockton, MA — As the coronavirus pandemic threatens some of America's most beloved holiday traditions in 2020, it might 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 purchased each year across the U.S., and currently, 350 million are growing in all 50 states.? During this unprecedented year, Christmas tree lots and choose-and-cut farms nationwide are taking precautions as the COVID-19 pandemic worsens to ensure buyers can select their favorite tree with minimal health and safety risk.

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

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 said in its guide.
