Seven and eight-foot prime white pine trees are packaged and ready for hauling to market. A man stands next to the pile of Christmas trees, looking at the camera as he prepares to add another tree to the stack at Martin Brothers Christmas Tree Farm in Swain County. This photo is from the Tuckaseigee Soil & Water Conservation District, which was formed in western North Carolina in 1957 and became the Swain Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) in 1982. The Swain SWCD’s mission is to provide for a quality environment and higher standard of living while protecting natural resources. The Swain SWCD photographs capture various SWCD projects throughout Swain, Jackson, Graham, Haywood, and surrounding counties in western North Carolina.
