GO GREEN - Buy a Farm Grown ChristmasTree.
Wisconsin Christmas Tree Producers Association
We strive to serve the public
by providing accurate information about real Christmas trees. We coordinate
and promote activities that educate and benefit the Christmas tree and wreath industry.
If you grow trees, or have a business that is part of our industry, we
would love to have you join our membership.
Each year the association holds summer and winter conventions, both with
technical sessions and trade shows. Featured at the summer event are informative
tours of Christmas tree plantations, along with many demonstrations.
Members receive Quarterly Journals that are filled with association news,
tree production information and techniques, insect and disease updates, and
other news. Members can advertise trees for sale in the Wholesale or Choose and Cut
pages on our
website.
Enjoy browsing through our site.
Have a Real
Tree Merry Christmas!
