West Virginia national forest to provide US Capitol Christmas tree

The West Virginia national forest will provide the U.S. Capitol Christmas tree this year. The tree is picked from a different forest every year and will be displayed on the west lawn.

A Christmas tree that adorns the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol will come from the Monongahela National Forest in West Virginia this year.

The U.S. Capitol Christmas tree is selected from a different national forest each year. It’s the first time since 1976 that a tree from the Monongahela National Forest will be used for the display, the U.S. Forest Service said in a news release Tuesday.
