Where to Find NC Christmas Trees Association Events and Photos

Updated

The NC Christmas Trees Association website (ncchristmastrees.com) has two dedicated entry points for this: an Events section that keeps you up to date on association farms, trees, and events, and a Video Gallery that collects photos of families on the hunt, decorated Christmas trees, and more. Both are reachable from the homepage, so you don't need an account or a special link to browse them.

Events: What the Section Covers

The homepage describes the Events area as the place to "stay up to date with North Carolina Christmas Tree Association farms, trees, and events." In practice, that means it's the association's own feed of what's happening across member farms rather than a general tourism calendar.

One example of the kind of news that surfaces there: the site notes that a tree from Ashe County growers Rusty & Beau Estes will be featured again in the White House Blue Room — the third time for the Estes. That item illustrates the mix you can expect: grower milestones and association news alongside event listings.

How to get there

  1. Open ncchristmastrees.com.
  2. On the homepage, locate the Events entry (the page presents it with the line "Upcoming Events").
  3. Select it to view current listings and updates.

Expected result: a page of association event information and farm/tree news. If the list looks thin, that reflects the association's posting cadence, not a broken link — check back seasonally, since Christmas tree activity clusters in late fall.

Photos and Video: The Gallery

The Video Gallery is the visual hub. The homepage introduces it with "Christmas trees galore!" and invites visitors to "Click here for photos of families on the hunt, decorated Christmas trees, and more."

That description tells you what to expect before you click:

  • Choose-and-cut scenes — families searching for and cutting their tree
  • Decorated trees — finished trees in holiday settings
  • Other association imagery — the "and more" the site references

How to get there

  1. From the homepage, find the Video Gallery block.
  2. Select View Gallery.
  3. Browse the collected photos and video content.

Expected result: a gallery page of images and video. This is useful if you're deciding whether a farm's setting matches what you want, or if you just want a sense of how North Carolina growers' trees look decorated.

Practical Notes

  • No login is mentioned for the Events or Gallery areas; the homepage presents them as open browse links. Whether any deeper member content requires membership isn't stated on the page, so don't assume either way.
  • Pair the gallery with the tree search. If a photo of a farm appeals to you, the homepage's Tree Search ("Looking for Choose and Cut, Wholesale, Retail or Mail Order, look here...") is the route to finding that farm's listing.
  • For grower context, the Education section covers North Carolina Christmas trees and the farmers who grow them — a useful companion to the event news, such as the White House tree item.
  • Timing matters. Association events and gallery updates follow the holiday season; a quiet Events page in spring is normal.

If your goal is simply to see the association's photos and know what's coming up, the homepage's Events and Video Gallery links get you there in one click each.
