When the tree is tagged and the customer is ready to cut it, the staff membdrs bring the tree to the bam, use an air hose to blow out the dead needles, make sure the bottom cut is straight and drill a whole up into the trunk from the bottom so the tree will fit onto the stand holder. “I have people who come to look at the nee, then come back with the family and tag the tree,” Claussen said. “Later they come back to visit the nee and at last, come back one more time to cut the tree and lake it home. They bring camcorders and cameras out to the field.

They really care about their nee. I am amazed how much time people will spend on a tree they intend to throw away after Christmas. “So we give them and their tree special individual attention and our efforts seem to be appreciated. I need to be commercial enough so people know I’m here, but no flashing lights or neon signs,” Claussen said. “Many of my cus tomers come for the country atmo sphere and we bend over back wards to share our country atmo sphere with them.” In addition to the retail business at the farm, some trees are sold wholesale and some for fund raising activities.

He believes there are many trees growing in the nooks and crannies around the county. “More than you realize,” he said.
