According to the annual survey conducted by the Real Christmas Tree Board, 84% of wholesale growers said they do not plan to raise wholesale prices for the 2025 season, with some growers saying they planned to lower prices. This means that for the fourth year, live tree prices should be about the same as last year.
Marsha Gray, executive director of the Real Christmas Tree Board, said in a press release, “Growers are prepared, supply is strong, and most are holding wholesale prices steady this year. This reflects the consistency of the real Christmas tree industry and the commitment of growers to ensuring that there’s a real Christmas tree for everyone who wants one.”
Real Christmas trees might look good to more people this year due to the rising tariffs on the stock of artificial trees coming from outside of the country. The cost of artificial trees is expected to rise considerably according to the American Christmas Tree Association. A shortage of stock may be the result as retailers are expected to order fewer trees to minimize being left with expensive seasonal stock.
Here is a list of a number of places to go in and near Dickson County to find a real Christmas tree this year.
