A recent survey of Christmas tree growers across the Great Lakes finds sales last year were significantly impacted by tree availability.
Michigan State University Extension’s Bill Lindberg tells Brownfield, “A third of the growers reported increased sales, a third had about consistent sales, and a third had a little bit decrease in sales.”
“But even for the ones that had consistent sales or a little bit decrease in sales, it was really more about having the trees to sell,” he says.
