Let the Shearing Begin

The Reese men and women are busy getting the trees sheared and mowed so that you will have the perfect Christmas Tree in a few months. Christmas is less than 6 months away! Each tree would not have its perfect shape if it was not sheared each year. The trees we planted this spring will not be seared but everything else will be sheared by hand using a very sharp knife. Enjoy these photos of before and after.

Dave Reese the shearing pro works at shaping the tree. This takes years of practice and a strong shoulder.
