Belton, Texas, is set to offer a variety of Christmas trees this season, thanks to a special shipment from North Carolina. After the Christmas tree lots in North Carolina were severely damaged by Hurricane Helene, local suppliers in Belton have stepped in to ensure residents have access to fresh holiday trees.
The hurricane, which made landfall earlier this year, caused extensive damage to many tree farms in North Carolina, a state renowned for its holiday tree production. In response, tree farmers from the region sought help from other areas to keep up with demand, leading to the shipment of thousands of trees to Belton and surrounding communities.
A Community-Focused Effort
The trees are being sold at a temporary lot in Belton, offering a wide range of sizes and species, including Fraser firs and other popular varieties. Local vendors have partnered with North Carolina tree farmers to deliver high-quality trees while supporting the region’s recovery from the storm.
“It’s been a difficult season for a lot of people, but we’re proud to do what we can to help,” said one of the local vendors involved in the effort. The Belton lot plans to remain open throughout the holiday season, providing fresh trees to those looking to bring holiday cheer to their homes.
Supporting North Carolina Farmers
Proceeds from the tree sales are expected to go toward supporting the farmers affected by the hurricane. This partnership is a vital way to assist the North Carolina farming community as they rebuild and recover from the devastating storm.
