Trees for Troops

For the past 5 years, the Ellms Family has coordinated the ‘Trees for Troops” effort in eastern New York. On a national basis last year over 18,000 trees were donated and delivered to 25 US bases in 14 different countries. Tree farmers donate the trees and FedEx delivers the trees at no charge. In 2009 Ellms’ Christmas Trees will again be the pick-up point for trees donated by eastern New York Christmas tree farmers.
