by Lauren Novak

Published October 23, 2019

This years Rockefeller Center Christmas tree has officially been chosen

The Christmas tree that will be the center of the festivities at Rockefeller Center has already been chosen. The Rockefeller Center posted a photo of the Norway spruce on Instagram. They captioned the photo, “Here it is: The 2019 #RockefellerCenter Christmas Tree. The Norway spruce hails from the Village of Florida in Orange County, NY.”

The caption continued, “Each year, Rockefeller Center receives submissions from families in hopes their tree will bring joy to the millions who visit Rockefeller Plaza during the holiday season. We usually select a Norway spruce that is later on in its life cycle and plant a young one in its place. Once the holidays have passed, the tree is donated to Habitat for Humanity, where it is recycled and used as lumber in their building projects.⁣”
