Some serious holiday energy is happening over here

Some serious holiday energy is happening over here at Altum’s at Finley Creek. Come see these beautiful holiday elves who specialize in helping you find the perfect fresh Fraser Fir Christmas tree, like the gorgeous one behind us. We’re feeling the spirit and you will, too when you walk through the open-air market and smell the evergreen, see our fresh new and classic holiday porch pot designs (unlike anything you’ll see at the grocery or warehouse stores) wreaths, grab & go hostess pots and centerpieces, fresh greenery bundles and more.

We’re keeping it real this holiday season and would love to share it with you.

Open every day from 10a-5p.

What kind of Christmas trees does Altum’s sell?

What kind of Christmas trees does Altum’s sell? Fragrant Fraser Firs with long-lasting, bi-color needles that have soft silvery undersides.

Where do Altum’s Christmas trees come from? Dana hand picks them from a family farm in North Carolina.

But am I destroying the environment by buying a fresh-cut Christmas tree every year? No! Christmas trees are grown as a crop, just like corn or beans. These sustainable, small farms have been in families for generations.

Are new trees cut down to make wreaths, garlands, swags and other evergreen decorations? No. Trained arborists thin trees in targeted regions to keep them healthy. Clippings are put to good use in holiday arrangements and can be placed outside afterward for wildlife nesting and protection. They will decompose naturally.

What other Christmas tree questions do you have?

Look who decided to show up today. Hello Winter!

Look who decided to show up
today. Hello Winter!

Low temperatures have
arrived! Soon the soil in
your pots and planters will
freeze.

Make a plan to empty out
the soil before you add your
winter greenery! Fresh and
unfrozen soil will make
creating your pots much
easier!

Enjoy this first blanket!
