Hilarious history of Darrell and Betty's adventures learning to run a Christmas tree farm in Texas.
When a couple in their forties move to the country and start a Christmas tree farm, with no idea at all of what they are getting into, you have all the makings of some hilarious stories. From start to the present day, read about everything you never knew about Christmas trees and how they're grown and marketed. Darrell and Betty did things two ways: the wrong way first, of course, which is what makes the book funny, from selling trees with aphids in them to hired hands who shaved trees to the bone to lost pets and endearing lost children, to grandmas trying to keep track of kids to wily customers trying to pull a fast one, all of them out searching for that "perfect tree". Illustrated.
