Sweet Georgia Fuyu Persimmons

It has been quiet at the farm after all the persimmon and Christmas tree activity! We've been getting caught up with work, pruning persimmon and other fruit trees, getting ready for spring, and enjoying beautiful sunsets!

I want to take this time to thank all of you for such a great season! WOW - we all celebrated the persimmons so well in 2025! So many of you came to the farm for U-Pick fruit, we had a record number of markets thanks to extra seasonal help, there were farm tours and teas! We had very successful online sales of shipped fruit using our new shipping box. The area schools participated in taste tests and served the fruit in new and creative ways! And, finally, our holiday sales were the best ever as new and return customers selected the persimmon products as great local gifts! Thank you so much for being a part of celebrating the Sweet Georgia Fuyu Persimmons! You are the best!

Tom's Trees is open in Glennville at the farm where the Sweet Georgia Fuyu Persimmons grow! How are you decorating your tree this year?

Christmas 2025 is all about joy, personality, and nostalgia—and your tree is center stage. Designers and magazines are all saying the same thing: forget stiff, “perfect” trees and matchy-matchy decor. This year, it’s about layered color, cozy memories, and decor that feels like you—whether your style is classic Southern, a little bit Dolly Parton, or dreamy Nutcracker ballet.

With so many trends and creative ideas, where do you start?

A few simple guidelines from designers:
• Match your home’s style. A historic, traditional home might lean toward Ralph Lauren Christmas or Festive Nostalgia, while a modern home might love a Monochrome Calm or Gentle Glow tree.
• Use your tree’s natural personality. The full, soft branches of Tom’s Murray cypress trees are perfect for layered ribbon, lots of ornaments, and statement themes.
• Pick one main story, then mix. You can absolutely combine trends: Nutcracker core + Maximalist Magic, or Festive Nostalgia + Handmade & Sustainable.
• Start with lights, then ribbon, then ornaments. This layering approach helps any trend look intentional instead of cluttered.

No matter which 2025 trend you fall for—classic Ralph Lauren plaids, Dolly-style maximalism, Nutcracker whimsy, or calm monochrome—the most important choice is the tree itself.

When you visit Tom’s Christmas Tree Farm, wander the rows, breathe in the fresh scent, and pick the tree that makes your whole family light up. Once it’s home, you can dress it in any of this year’s trends… or create a new look that’s all your own.

Because at the end of the day, the most “on-trend” Christmas tree in 2025 is the one that’s filled with your memories, your traditions, and your joy.
