The tradition traces its roots to African first-fruit harvest celebrations, and its name comes from the Swahili “matunda ya kwan- za,” meaning first fruits. The focal point of the Italian Christmas holy day is the nativity scene (presepio) rather than the Christmas tree. Saint Nicholas is known to Italian children as Babbo Natale, or Father Christmas, and children will find in their shoes left on the doorstep either candies and fruit or onions and coal. It’s either…or for Italian children, and in addition to Babbo Natale, La Befana (a benevolent old woman) visits on Epiphany, the traditional day for giving Kwanzaa is a non-religious holiday inspired by the civil rights struggles of gifts. La Befana, the legend goes, was a crabby old the 60’s and based on ancient African celebrations. The colorful Kwanzaa woman who shooed children away. She realized the display includes the “first fruits,” from which the holiday’s name is derived. error of her ways one night after three men stopped at her door and told her about a special star they were following.

The Mexican-American Christmas tree sparkles with red, green and white lights to represent the poinsettia, known as the “flower of the Holy Night.” The three colors are also represented in the nation- al flag, with green representing hope, white, purity, In the Italian tradition, the Nativity, or Il Presipio, takes precedence over and red, courage. La Posada, a children’s pageant, is the Christmas tree. St. Francis of Assisi is said to have originated the a reenactment of Mary and Joseph being turned manger scene in order to teach the illiterate about the importance of the Christian holiday. away from the inn. Las Posadas begins the Christmas season on December 16, when holiday decorating begins, and traditional gift-giving day is on Epiphany, or Three Kings Day. Instead of a carrot for Rudolph, children in Mexico leave grass in their shoes for the Wise Men’s camels. In the morning, their shoes over- flow with toys and candies. The Philippine tree on exhibit is decorated with abaca fiber angels and dry rice stalk angels. Cotton, capiz shells, bamboo and other agricultural prod- ucts of the Philippines are used to construct other orna- ments. The Star of Bethlehem is a symbol of the sea- son in the culture.

    PB 1854 Tennessee Christmas Tree Production Manual 1 Tennessee Christmas Tree Production Manual Contributing Authors Alan B. Galloway Area Farm Management Specialist [email protected] Megan Bruch Leffew Marketing Specialist [email protected] Dr. David Mercker Extension Forestry Specialist [email protected] Foreword The authors are indebted to the author of the original Production of Christmas Trees in Tennessee (Bulletin 641, 1984) manual by Dr. Eyvind Thor. His efforts in promoting and educating growers about Christmas tree production in Tennessee led to the success of many farms and helped the industry expand. This publication builds on the base of information from the original manual. The authors appreciate the encouragement, input and guidance from the members of the Tennessee Christmas Tree Growers Association with a special thank you to Joe Steiner who provided his farm schedule as a guide for Chapter 6. The development and printing of this manual were made possible in part by a USDA specialty crop block grant administered through the Tennessee Department of Agriculture. The authors thank the peer review team of Dr. Margarita Velandia, Dr. Wayne Clatterbuck and Kevin Ferguson for their keen eyes and great suggestions. While this manual is directed more toward new or potential choose-and-cut growers, it should provide useful information for growers of all experience levels and farm sizes. Parts of the information presented will become outdated. It is recommended that prospective growers seek additional information from their local University of Tennessee Extension office and from other Christmas tree growers. 2 Tennessee Christmas Tree Production Manual Contents Chapter 1: Beginning the Planning ...............................................................................................
