Harvesting the White House tree. Top right: Joel Mendez Bottom: Larry Brown. |
Our tree in the White HouseA few of years ago , when our good friends, the Hedlunds, won first place in national competition at the National Christmas Tree Association convention, and received the honor of putting a tree in the blue room of the White House, we offered to let them select one of our commercial sized Noble fir for the job. Following are some photos of the tree selected by the white house head usher and chief horticulturist and some photos of the actual harvest of the tree. It was a beauty, over 18 feet tall and as perfect as they come! |

We have over 200 acres in trees, with sizes from table-tops to 25'. Noble fir is our primary crop, but we grow over ten different species. We are located in Lewis County, Washington, about 25 miles east of the I-5 corridor midway between Seattle and Portland. The area is very scenic, with Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens nearby. |
