Festivities for the Capitol Christmas Tree! |
The Capitol Christmas Tree is a wonderful, historic tradition that brings our great country together during the holidays, and I am thrilled that the 2023 tree is from West Virginia’s Monongahela National Forest. The 2023 Capitol Christmas Tree will stand tall in our nation’s capital throughout the holiday season, representing the wild and wonderful nature of the Mountain State – including our remarkable forestry and wildlife – for the first time since 1976. The tour will kick off Saturday, November 4, with a special celebration in Elkins, home to the headquarters of Monongahela National Forest. There are 14 festivals planned across the state, check them out below!
