The Trees for Troops program is sending their 300,000 Christmas tree to a military family this holiday season.
Christmas Spirit Foundation Executive Director Rick Dungey tells Brownfield in about ten days Christmas tree growers will collect and ship thousands of real trees to military bases across the country.
“We end up getting trees from probably around 300 different tree farms across 26 states,” he explains.
He says FedEx Freight will pick up about 16,000 trees from more than 50 collection sites this year which are then delivered to 93 bases in the U.S.
