It’s beginning to look — and smell — a lot like Christmas on Seminary Street in Key West. MARC’s Christmas tree lot and holiday shop opened, as always, the day after Thanksgiving.
The scent of fir trees fills the air, and makes even a hot Key West afternoon feel like Christmas.
The tree lot will be open daily until Christmas Eve, or until all the trees are sold.
Sizes range from tabletop minis to 9-footers and prices range from $40 to $150.
The Monroe Association for Remarkable Citizens (MARC) is a nonprofit organization that provides life skill training and job opportunities for developmentally disabled adults in the community. Throughout the year, MARC operates a day program for its clients, along with a nursery and plant store.
Its Christmas tree lot and pumpkin patch have been holiday traditions in Key West for more than 30 years.
In addition to the trees, MARC’s holiday shop offers decorated wreaths, garlands, poinsettias, ornaments, tree stands and gifts. Visit marchouse.org for more information.
