Working with the North Carolina Christmas Tree Growers has been one of the most enriching times in my career. There is always so much to learn and to discuss with the people who are changing the agricultural landscape while keeping valuable cultural traditions.  The North Carolina Christmas Tree Association (NCCTA) supports the growers and offers different platforms for cooperation, education, and extension. Limbs & Needles is a full-color publication that is distributed to NCCTA members and
industry affiliates two times per year. Its objective is to help meet the needs of people engaged in the production
and marketing of real Christmas trees in North Carolina.
