It may not feel like it, but tree farmers in Kewaunee County know the Christmas season is coming fast. It takes the other eleven months of the year to get ready for four weeks of Christmas tree cutting and wreath making. Tammy Aissen from Aissen Tree Farm in Pilsen says the summer is the time where her family and their employees work hard to make sure their over 50,000 conifers have that great Christmas shape.
Weed control and mowing the farm’s hundreds of acres takes place the rest of the summer as their trees make their eight to ten year journey from the field to someone’s home.
