Click on the Newsletter link to the left to view the agenda, and other information valuable to tree farmers. The Inland Empire Christmas Tree Association (IECTA) is made up of growers across Montana, Idaho, eastern Washington and eastern Oregon. The forests and tree plantations across the Inland Empire have produced quality Christmas Trees for many years. Tree growth in the Inland Empire is sufficiently slow enough to produce the dense foliage and deep color desirable in high grade Christmas Trees. Our Fall mountain frosts ensure an early sap set which is necessary for long-term needle retention. This allows our trees and greenery to be shipped into hot, dry climates as well as cold prairie areas. A variety of tree species are available from our members, as well as beautiful speciality items crafted with care from boughs of firs, pine and cedar. Many of our growers deal in landscape species also. See the Buyer's Guide for more information. Note: Minutes of our most recent meeting can be found under Meeting Minutes.
