Keeping The Tradition AliveAg Commissioner keeps alive the tradition of cutting his own Christmas tree
This is Matt Lohr�s first Christmas as Commissioner of the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS), and like commissioners before him, he is keeping alive the tradition of cutting a fresh Virginia Christmas tree at one of Virginia�s choose-and-cut-farms. Commissioner Lohr, his wife Andrea, their daughter Caroline, age 9, and son Carson, age five, have gone to the same farm for years to find their perfect tree. �This is a family tradition for us,� Lohr reported. �We usually get our tree Thanksgiving weekend so we can enjoy its beauty and fragrance for a long time.� Consumers should go to www.virginiagrown.com to search for a retail lot or farm that sells Virginia Grown trees.
