Growers of Premium North Carolina Fraser Firs
Wholesale Christmas Trees
In 1967 Aubrey Henderson established Snowbird Farms
when he set his first Fraser Firs on a 30 acre plot
in the Cashiers area of
southern Jackson County. Over the next 35 years he would provide
in excess of 2 million premium quality Fraser Fir
Christmas trees to retailers throughout the east and
Gulf Coast states. In 2000 we set our first 3/2
transplants continuing the legacy established 40
years ago and now 3 generations removed.
Grown from seed of the Mount Rogers lineage, the
young trees remain in a lineout bed for 5 years. At
this time they are transplanted to the field where
they remain until ready for harvest in 7-10 years.
All of our trees are grown at an average elevation
of 4500 feet, idea for Fraser Firs! At harvest, our
trees are stored upright in moistened sawdust and
100% shade until shipped.
Snowbird Farms has and will continue providing 1st
quality Fraser Firs with the care and expertise 40
years in the making.
