Christmas Tree
Buying and Selling
Due by 'Grades'
A new era in Christmas tree
buying and selling may be just
around the corner easing that
tedious chore of touring a Christ
mas tree lot, shaking out one
tree after another, looking for
just the right one.
For the first time, Christmas
trees can be harvested and sold
this year on the basis of federally
standardized grades. This offers
possibilities for better returns to
growers for good quality trees,
says Gary Sander, Oregon State
college forest products market
ing specialist.
Grading will be voluntary and
inspection service will be provid
ed for a moderate fee by the de
partment of agriculture at all ma
jor shipping points and terminal
markets.A big advantage for the
grading system is that producers
can now sell trees "sight unseen"
but graded to distant markets.
Such a system offers protection
to both the producer and dealer,
Sander explains.
urowers can now select trees
that will bring better prices and
leave the others for later harvest
for the Christmas trade or other
purposes.
Standards were developed by
the USDA service at the request of
the National Christmas Tree
the houses also outside and in
side trees are decorated with
lights.
