A Westfield Christmas tree farm is in the running for a national award. Littledown Farm Christmas Trees has been a finalist in the British Christmas Tree Growers’ Association best UK grower awards for the last few years, but has never made it into the top three. This year the finalists are also in the running to provide a tree to 10 Downing Street. Jon Baker, son of farm owner Michael Baker, said: “We were fourth last year. We hope to come in the top three this time.
“We prune our trees twice a year, and everything we’ve got is grown ourselves. We’re also the only Christmas tree farm in the area where the general public can harvest their own trees.” Winners will be announced on October 25. For more information about Littledown’s trees call 01424 753413.
