Hopkinton Boy Scout Troup 1 is selling fresh cut Christmas trees again this year. The tree lot behind Colella's Supermarket opens after Thanksgiving, on Friday, November 28 at 12:00pm. The trees are the fragrant traditional New England Balsam Fir (4-11 ft.) and the dark green, low-shedding, sturdy-branched Fraser Fir (5-12 ft.). The scouts will be selling trees until they are gone. Hours are Wed 4-7pm, Thurs 4-7pm, Fri 4-9pm, Sat 9am-8pm, Sun 9am-6pm. Closed Monday and Tuesday. Each year Troop 1 makes a special order to their vendor for the largest tree they can find to donate to the town. The Boy Scouts will be installing the tree on the Town Common on Nov 28. Then the Girl Scouts will decorate the tree in time for the annual tree lighting event on December 6. Along with each tree comes information on how to recycle the tree at the end of the season. Read more at www.troop1hopkinton.org. We accept payment for trees by cash or personal check only, no credit cards. There is a ATM machine at Colella's Supermarket if needed. A big thank you from Troop 1 to Colella's Supermarket and Lumber Street Auto, without their support our tree sale would not be possible. Questions?
