Choose-and-cut Christmas trees are the freshest of fresh trees!
Choosing and cutting your own Christmas tree is a wonderful outing to begin your Christmas season. Bring your family and friends to experience the fun and excitement of a working farm where you can find your perfect tree, and enjoy pumpkin patches, hay rides, wreaths, gift shops, farm animals, school tours, breathe some fresh air, and many other offerings.
Bring home a healthy, fresh grown Christmas tree from a local farm.
Our proud members invite you to explore our website, call or e-mail, check us out on the web, Facebook or other social media but most encouragingly come on out and visit the farm. We are confident you will return!
Real trees make scents!
If you are considering starting your own Christmas tree farm, full-time or as a hobby, it will be rewarding to see your hard work come to life. As with any farming endeavor, Christmas tree farming requires smart planning, efficient management, a dedicated application of information, determination and good old work. There is no better organization than the Southern Christmas Tree Association to become a member of when considering such an operation, implementing farming practices or increasing your knowledge base of this rewarding industry. Sharing experience counts at SCTA.

The 2026 annual meeting of The Southern Christmas Tree Association will be the 50th consecutive meeting of the organization it has become today. The annual meeting will be September 18-20 at Lazy Acres Agritainment near Chunky, Mississippi just west of Meridian. Farm hosts Michael & Cathy May, with their family and employees, are extremely excited to have you on the farm for this momentous occasion. The two-day meeting will be held entirely on the farm. Lazy Acres Agritainment is a year-round operation providing numerous opportunities for visitors to see, experience and enjoy a working farm with various venues. This years' meeting will focus on the "experience" of going to the farm to cut your own Christmas tree. Really try to imagine what your visitors feel and see and improve on those experiences to facilitate incredible, repeat memories. You will see their farm in full operation and staffing as it would be on opening day so "you can experience", learn and ask questions.
