U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree Readied for its Journey
After being harvested on Nov. 1, staff spent three days prepping the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree for its journey from the mountains of West Virginia to the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol.
West Hempfield Township-based AHF Products Inc. lent its facility to ready and wrap the tree in Beverly, West Virginia. AHF is a second-year sponsor. Beverly is located near Elkins, WV, home of the Monongahela National Forest. View this timelapse of part of the process.
