NC Christmas Tree Farm - Fraser Fir Christmas Tree
An estimated 25,000 acres of North Carolina are dedicated to growing beautiful Fraser Fir trees by about 1,600 growers, for a combined 50 million Fraser Fir trees. The Fraser Fir represents roughly 90% of all species of Christmas trees grown in North Carolina. Of all species available, the North Carolina Fraser Fir has been judged the best through a contest sponsored by the National Christmas Tree Association, and has been chosen for the official White House Christmas Tree a total of 9 times (more than any other species).

For a tree grower, there is no higher honor than presenting one of your own trees to the First Lady of the United States to be displayed in the White House. Each year growers compete within their state for the chance to compete at the national level. Bruner and Homer Sides, Randal’s father and uncle, won this prestigious honor in 1973, and it is our goal to one day proudly present one of our own trees as the official White House Christmas tree.
