Sugarland Christmas Trees

We sold our first Christmas trees in 1988 from under a tarp and it rained practically the entire selling season.  With all the family helping (we have a large family), we managed to make it through and, I must say, we all have a blast.  Now it is a FAMILY TRADITION.

Starting about the first of October each year, Sug and I start the preliminary setup.  I work on the trees and the Sugarhaus.  Sug gets the inside setup with her arrangements she has made during the summer and she does most of the exterior decorating.  During Thanksgiving week, out of town guests start showing up to assist in completing the setup.

Each year at Thanksgiving we have a skeet shoot, next eat dinner and then we head to the fields to tag trees and complete the setup. Most of our guests enjoy it so much they stay until the following Sunday and always leave with a tree, wreath or something from the Sugarhaus.
