Yesterday, the focus was on Christmas tree farms in western North Carolina where you can cut your own Christmas tree as part of a package with local inns, B&Bs and motels. Click here to read it.

But you don't have to travel to the western edges of the state to cut your own tree. We have some local farms here where you can choose and cut your own.

Here's where to find them:

Northlake Christmas Trees & Nursery, Benson. Opens Nov. 29
