While visiting Ashe County, N.C., my family and I were amazed by the number of Christmas tree farms cascading along the mountainside. Later, we learned that Ashe County is one of the nation’s top producers of Christmas Trees, particularly the Fraser Fur.
We couldn’t help loving these tiny tannenbaums!

Your girls are darling! We get a live tree every year, but have never actually cut it down ourselves, how cool!

Love the little one in the snow. What a great tree farm. In a few year they will be prefect.

When I first glanced at the pic it looked familiar. I grew up on a Christmas tree farm (from Indiana though) I remember when my dad planted a field like this and now it is huge because he stopped selling them 10 or more years ago. I miss that business..

beautiful pictures. love all that snow. wish we would get some to play with. fingers crossed. we used to travel to NC to get our tree, but for the last two seasons we visited a lot that has trees from a farm up in NC. it’s a lot easier to trekking up to NC, but we might have to make a trip up to play in some snow. happy WW and take care.

What a fun place to visit! My daughters would love that. I love how your little one is snuggling up against her big sister – so cute!

Those are great winter pictures!!!
January 13, 2010 at 1:40 pm
That is really cool. I would try to look like I was a giant or something because I am a big nerd. lol

What a great thing to see in person. My son always asks where the trees come from but doesn’t believe a farm. So this year we planted some evergreen seeds to grow one and let him see it grow.

Beautiful photos. I bet you had a great time.

Sounds like a great vacay…..just how long DO your girls have out of school in FL?

This year was a longer Winter Break. They had almost 3 weeks off.
