Troop 11 purchases the Christmas trees from a tree farm cooperative located in Nova Scotia, Canada.

All of the trees we sell are Balsam Firs.

We sell two grades of Balsam Fir trees:

• Unsheared:  These are trees from the tree farm, but are usually grown in more of a forest setting and are not regularly groomed.  Unsheared trees are usually slightly less dense and may have some uneven areas of growth.  We offer trees generally between 4' and 8.5’ tall, and the trees are sorted into two height ranges.  Donation amounts are specific to each height range.  Our table top trees are also unsheared and are generally shorter than 4'.

• Sheared:  These are typically grown in a more evenly spaced tree farm style and are regularly groomed as they grow to their final height.  Sheared trees tend to be fuller (more dense growth) and have a more conical, traditional Christmas tree shape.  We offer sheared trees from 5’ to 10’ tall, and the trees are sorted by height range.  Donation amounts are specific to each height range.
