Santa’s Christmas Trees is a seasonal retail Christmas tree business serving the Greater Nashville area and Middle Tennessee. Founded in 1985 by Jim McLeod, the company operates traditional retail Christmas tree lots and states its mission is “providing Middle Tennessee families with the best quality Christmas trees you can find.” It is a family-owned business that has grown from a single lot to eight locations across the region. The company is clear that it is a retailer rather than a grower: “We operate traditional retail Christmas tree lots… We do not operate any farms or have plantable trees.”
Products & Services
Santa’s Christmas Trees offers fresh-cut trees and a range of related products and services, including:
- Premium Fraser Fir trees, its primary offering
- Noble Fir and Nordmann Fir trees sourced from West Coast growers
- Fresh-cut wreaths in Fraser Fir, Boxwood, and multi-select varieties
- Hand-woven garlands in White Pine, Fraser Fir, Boxwood, and multi-select varieties
- Wood reindeer decorations and custom mantle arrangements
- Tree flocking services
- Professional tree lighting services
- Custom delivery and setup
- Tree removal and pickup service after the season
The company sources its trees from premium farms in North Carolina, Oregon, and Washington. Trees are “priced by the height, grade and type of tree,” and inventory and pricing vary by location. The company exclusively sells Cinco tree stands, noting it has “seen too many inferior stands fall, break, or fail to hold water.”
About
Jim McLeod established the first lot in 1985 on Hillsboro Road. The business employs roughly 120 seasonal staff, of whom about 15 have been with the company for 12 years or more. Santa’s Christmas Trees also partners with several local schools for fundraising, including Brentwood High School, Centennial High School, East Magnet School, and Hillsboro High School, and reports raising more than $100,000 for Brentwood High School since 1996.

Additional Information
Pre-orders are available exclusively at the Sharondale location, with deliveries pre-scheduled for pre-paid orders only. Some outer ZIP codes of Williamson and Davidson counties have limited delivery availability. For tree care, the company advises making a straight cut about half an inch from the base, using a water-holding stand, keeping the tree away from heat sources, and checking the water daily.
