Riverwood Christmas Tree Lot Opens Friday

A Sandy Springs tradition will once again return on Friday.

The Riverwood International Charter School baseball team will open its Christmas tree lot on Nov. 28, providing a way for residents to purchase fresh Fraser Firs from North Carolina.

While many businesses and families pre-ordered trees, plenty of trees will be available for walk-up sales. Each tree will receive a fresh cut at the lot, and the baseball team will once again offer delivery for a small fee within a ten mile radius of the school.

The lot will only be open for 10 days this year, and the sale will run through Sunday, Dec. 7. Hours are 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. opening day, 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays and noon to 6 p.m. Sundays.

Additionally, the Lady Raider softball program will be on site offering wreaths for sale. Direct from Vermont, the wreaths come in three sizes: 16”, 25” and 30”.

Specific pricing on trees and wreaths can be found online.

The tree lot is behind the high school at 5900 Raider Drive between the football and baseball fields. For more information visit Riverwood Athletics’ website.
