Trees for Troops

Michigan Christmas Tree Growers are Proud to Support Trees for Troops

Since 2005, Michigan’s Christmas tree growers have donated more than 1,000 trees each year to support the Trees for Troops program. Imagine a smiling group of U.S. troops gathered around a Christmas Tree that was grown on an American farm and express shipped to arrive fresh and green somewhere on the other side of the world, just in time for Christmas. Or, imagine a spouse and children sharing joyous memories of Christmas through the gift of free, real Christmas Tree while their family member is away serving our country. Trees for Troops® makes this vision a reality!
