Where To Find Christmas Trees In 2020 Near Plymouth-Canton

Plymouth-Canton, MI — As the coronavirus pandemic threatens a long list of 2020’s well-loved holiday traditions, it might still be possible to find the right Christmas tree for your family this year — and do it safely.

At least 25 million real Christmas trees are purchased each year across America, and currently, 350 million are growing in all 50 U.S. states. And during this unprecedented year, Christmas tree lots and choose-and-cut farms nationwide are taking precautions amid the coronavirus pandemic to ensure patrons can select their favorite tree with minimal risk to their family's health and safety.

In fact, the National Christmas Tree Association has developed a 2020 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.

"It is likely that Christmas will have a greater significance for many in 2020 as we seek to offset the disruption of normalcy from COVID-19 with a family-oriented holiday experience," the association wrote on its website. "However, shopping for a Christmas tree, the iconic centerpiece of the holiday, will be a different experience this year as the risks from COVID-19 must be taken seriously."
