My family, like many families, enjoy the tradition of spending Thanksgiving Day together feasting on turkey, sweet potato casserole, and many other classic holiday dishes until we are too full to eat another bite. It’s not often that family gathers together, so our family utilizes every moment over the holiday weekend. Instead of spending time in large stores fighting the lines on Black Friday, we spend the day together tagging our live Christmas tree. Something is exhilarating about a cool fall day on a Christmas Tree Farm. Local Delaware Christmas Tree farms, big and small, hold a story steeped in tradition that has become part of the memories for so many families here in Delaware and surrounding states. As you embark on your yearly trip to find the perfect live tree, please stop in the shop and check out their custom holiday-inspired ornaments or gifts. Don’t forget to grab some apple cider or hot chocolate before you venture through the farms.
