According to the annual survey conducted by the Real Christmas Tree Board, 84% of wholesale growers said they do not plan to raise wholesale prices for the 2025 season, with some growers saying they planned to lower prices. This means that for the fourth year, live tree prices should be about the same as last year.
Marsha Gray, executive director of the Real Christmas Tree Board, said in a press release, “Growers are prepared, supply is strong, and most are holding wholesale prices steady this year. This reflects the consistency of the real Christmas tree industry and the commitment of growers to ensuring that there’s a real Christmas tree for everyone who wants one.”
Real Christmas trees might look good to more people this year due to the rising tariffs on the stock of artificial trees coming from outside of the country. The cost of artificial trees is expected to rise considerably according to the American Christmas Tree Association. A shortage of stock may be the result as retailers are expected to order fewer trees to minimize being left with expensive seasonal stock.
Here is a list of a number of places to go in and near Cheatham County to find a real Christmas tree this year.

Located on the border between Cheatham and Montgomery County, Kandi Kane Christmas Tree Farm was established in 2015 by Scott and Kathey Staggs, a retired military couple. They fell in love with the area when they arrived in 2000, and decided to make it their permanent home when Scott retired as a disabled veteran from the Army in 2010 after 23 years. Buying a Christmas Tree Farm was a dream come true. It gave them a chance to learn and grow right along with the trees.
They grow mainly Blue Spruce and Norway Spruce, but also have planted Canaan Firs and Murray Cypress recently. This will be their first year of Choose and Cut Blue Spruce. They will also have pre-cut Douglas, Fraser and Canaan firs.
Their gift shop and gourmet popcorn and sweet treat shop will be open for the 2025 Christmas season. Entertainment for kids includes a playground and crafting, as well as a Christmas themed lighted trail for their hayride through the trees. They also take appointments for family Christmas photos.
