We invite the public to join us in donating a tree to a military family for $30 per tree. Details available via our Facebook page or by contacting the farm directly at 315.697.9498.

Last holiday season, more than 18,000 trees were delivered to 65 military bases in the U.S. and overseas. This brought the total to more than 176,000 Real Christmas Trees delivered through Trees for Troops since 2005.

“Trees for Troops is a very rewarding program to everyone involved.” said Richard Darling, Christmas SPIRIT Foundation chairman. “It is such an honor to have the opportunity to say thank you to our troops, and help ensure military families have the kind of joyful, traditional Christmas memories that we would wish for America’s heroes.”

Each year, hundreds of military families visit the Trees for Troops website and Facebook page to leave heartfelt thank you messages and pictures of their families celebrating around their beautifully decorated Christmas tree. For example, a message from a Camp Pendleton family read, “Thank you for our beautiful Christmas tree! We weren’t sure what we were going to do this year…Trees for Troops was an answer to our prayers.”

If you miss this year’s cut off for donating a tree at Romagnoli’s – Nov. 23 – you can still help support Trees for Troops by making a tax-deductible donation (www.treesfortroops.org) or by purchasing a Christmas tree at various farm & retail locations across the nation during Trees for Troops Weekend, Dec. 2 through 4, 2016.
