On Sunday,December 6th, members of the South Salem Fire Department took place in our first annual Christmas tree cutting at Maple Row Farm in Easton Connecticut. Members had fun walking the farm looking for the perfect tree and then were able to cut their favorite tree down, tag them and throw them on the tractors for the long ride down the hill to the cars. Sunday was a nice warm day in December to get out and enjoy some time with friends and family. Even though one tree might have gotten lost it was a fun day had by all that were involved. Special thanks to Firefighter Mark Melnychuk and his family for putting this event together.
