I USE ARTIFICIAL

This is a tradition developed in my family since we moved to SC. The last couple of years we have selected our trees from a local tree farm. The owners of the farm are very nice people and grow gorgeous trees. We bought an 8 footer this year, and we did not pay a whole lot for it.

I know there will always be the real tree vs the fake tree. we have a fake tree ourselves just our choice. I do know relatives and friends who would only have real trees every year. My cousins used to cut down their own. for some it is the tradition.
