WASHINGTON (Gray News) – First lady Jill Biden will receive this year’s White House Christmas tree on Monday.
Cartner’s Christmas Tree Farm in Newland, North Carolina, held a send-off celebration for the 2024 Official White House Christmas Tree on Wednesday.
The owners of the farm named their winning tree “Tremendous.”
The tree is about 25 years old, 20 feet tall and 12 feet wide.
Jim Cartner’s family has competed for the honor at least 10 times in the past and finally, this was their year.
The win comes at a good time for the Cartners after losing thousands of trees when Helene hit the area.
