Where To Find Christmas Trees In 2020 In The Natick Area

Natick, MA — As the ongoing coronavirus pandemic threatens some of America's most beloved holiday traditions in 2020, it could 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? And despite these unprecedented times, the tradition will continue in 2020. Christmas tree lots and choose-and-cut farms nationwide are taking precautions as the coronavirus pandemic worsens to ensure locals can take home a tree with minimal risk to their family's health and safety.

In fact, the National Christmas Tree Association has circulated a 2020 guide with recommendations and best practices for Christmas tree sellers to follow. The guide advises sellers to frequently sanitize items such as hand saws and tree cart handles, as well as countertops, restrooms and other areas. Special signage and touchless, paperless payment systems are also being encouraged.
