Discover a New Family Holiday Tradition: Evergreen Trail Christmas Farms Announces Season Opening

SPARTA, N.C., Nov. 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Scenic Evergreen Trail Christmas Farms represent more than a dozen of the finest choose and cut Christmas tree farms in the U.S.

The breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains are the pristine backdrop for America's exquisitely cultivated Evergreen Trail Trees. Well-known for their beauty, resilience and fragrance, these exceptional Fraser Fir trees and greenery have been selected time and again to grace America's finest residences, including the White House.

A short 1- to 2-hour drive from Charlotte, the Triad and the Triangle areas of North Carolina as well as southwestern Virginia, participating Evergreen Trail farms welcome visitors from throughout the Southern region as early as November 14 and as late as December 24, 2011 to discover a new family Christmas tradition in picturesque Alleghany County, North Carolina.

"A world away from today's hustle and bustle, our Evergreen Trail takes visitors back to the simpler times of a bygone era," said Lizabeth Roupe, Reeves Ridge Christmas Trees. "Here, the crisp mountain air, aroma of fresh pine needles and warmth of hot cocoa and cider sets the perfect holiday mood for our visitors' most beloved holiday tradition--finding their family's Evergreen Trail Christmas tree as they explore our mountain trails."

"In addition to carrying on an enduring, memorable American tradition, our visitors are doing their part to support Western North Carolina's small and mid-size tree farmers, sustain our state's agriculture and help strengthen our region's economy, too," added Amy Lucas, Pardue Tree Farm.

This holiday season, Evergreen Christmas Tree Farms is sponsoring the Evergreen Alleghany County Adventure Package giveaway, Gift for the Soul Food Drive, and partnering with The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Habitat for Humanity to donate trees to families in need.
