The Christmas tree industry is very important. In Oregon, it's one of the biggest ag industries.

I understand that. But it became a big industry because people over the years adopted the Christmas tree tradition, thus creating demand. The tradition came first and drove the industry. The tradition wasn't imposed on anyone. Strictly marketplace.
