Idea to make extra money becomes a Christmas tradition for Allermans

It’s Christmas and people have begun to search high and low for the perfect tree. Some begin looking right after Thanksgiving, and hit all the local spots hoping they will find something before the big day. But, that can backfire when the choices become fewer.

Other consumers have their favorite vendors, and are repeat customers year after year. At Allerman Trees, Little Falls, the owners say many of their sales are from repeat customers. And, the two brothers can remember from year to year what type of tree many of them want. See more in Tina Snell’s Morrison County Record story.
