Where To Find A Christmas Tree In 2020 Near Chesterfield

Chesterfield, MO — As the COVID-19 pandemic threatens some of America's most iconic holiday traditions in 2020, it may still be possible to take your family on a hunt for the ideal Christmas tree this year — and do it safely.

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 during this unprecedented year, Christmas tree lots and choose-and-cut farms nationwide are taking precautions as coronavirus cases rise to ensure locals can select a tree with minimal risk to their family's health and safety.

In fact, the National Christmas Tree Association has created a new 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.
