Indiana County isn't just the Christmas Tree Capital of the World. It's the birthplace of the Christmas tree as we know it.
Growing Christmas trees as a farm crop seems to have started in Indiana County in the years following 1918 by Murray Stewart, Sam Dible, Walter Schroth, Silas Streams, Fred Musser, and others who planted various pines and spruces.
Today, Indiana County growers market more than one million trees annually. Trees from the green, rolling hills of Indiana County grace the hearthsides and parlors of homes across the nation.
With the natural advantages of climate, topography, and soil, the Indiana County Christmas Tree Growers Association members continually improve culture programs to produce seedlings and trees for markets worldwide.
Truly, Indiana County helps the world celebrate Christmas.
