A few days remain for the 19th annual Trees For Troops. Deadline is Saturday November 14th.

Story Behind Trees For Troops

Operating through the Christmas SPIRIT Foundation, Trees for Troops delivers farm-grown, real Christmas trees to military families stationed both domestically and overseas.

Led by Dewey Romagnoli and family, the local effort has evolved into a massive regional movement.

After successfully donating 847 trees in a previous season, the farm has set its sights even higher, pushing toward an ambitious goal of 900 donated trees.

The monumental task relies heavily on local partnerships.

Regional organizations and area businesses, such as The Green Team, frequently join forces with the Greater Canastota Chamber of Commerce to sponsor trees on behalf of customers, ensuring military households receive a comforting piece of home during the holidays.
