Thanks for sharing, Cindy! That’s pretty cool you had a Christmas tree farm in your backyard. I loved cutting down a tree with my dad every year when I was a kid but since I no longer live at home, my sister took over that tradition years ago. I will definitely always cherish those memories. Thanks so much for reading the piece and glad you enjoyed it!

So I grew up with a Christmas Tree farm in my backyard (Burlingame) and did not know it. We bought our tree at a lot in Burlingame one week before Christmas, usually on a Sunday after Church. It was a tradition I loved. But I would have loved a trip to the farm to cut one down even better. Now that is the best! When I started my own family,we moved to Siskiyou County, and went to the Cascades to the east to cut our holiday tree down. That was our young family’s tradition…so special! The hot chocolate and cookies that we brought along always tasted the best! We’ve abandoned that tradition now but always will remember those outings with fondness.
