The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is seeking nominations for four open seats on the Christmas Tree Promotion Board. These positions are for three-year terms beginning January 1, 2026. The deadline for nominations is June 1, 2025. The Christmas Tree Promotion Board is responsible for promoting real Christmas trees, educating consumers, and conducting industry research. The board consists of 12 members—11 producers and one importer—who collaborate to support the Christmas tree industry in the United States. Producers from three regions are eligible for nomination. The Western Region, which includes states such as California, Oregon, and Washington, has two open seats. The Central Region, covering states like Michigan, Missouri, and Texas, has one open seat. The Eastern Region, which includes states such as New York, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina, also has one open seat. Producers who grow trees in multiple regions may only seek nomination in the region where they produce the majority of their trees.
