The Monroe Association for ReMARCable Citizens (MARC) Christmas tree lot in Key West is now open and filled with fragrant pines freshly shipped from the North Carolina mountains to the Southernmost City. Trees from 3 to 10 feet tall — along with wreaths, garlands, holiday accessories, ornaments and locally produced gifts — are available from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily until Christmas Eve, or until sold out. The lot and shop will close at 5 p.m. on Dec. 6 for the city’s holiday parade.
Located at 1401 Seminary St., the MARC Christmas tree lot raises money for the organization’s adult day training program. It is a highlight of Key West Holiday Fest, an annual celebration of the season orchestrated by numerous island entities and presented in part by the Lodging Association of the Florida Keys and Key West and the Monroe Country Tourist Development Council.
