The 4D Farm in Weatherford celebrates the holidays year-round -- it grows Christmas trees.
"Love Christmas," owner Ron Dearman said. "That's a beautiful tree right there."

"Going to have to replace them," Dearman said. "If I can't get some faster-growing or something we're gonna be short 400 trees in five years."
Dearman usually orders trees from out of state to keep up with demand, and to provide variety. The weather and supply chain issues are causing the perfect storm this year.

"It's still the season, that's all that matters," Dearman said. "The birth of my Savior. Can't beat that! Got to be happy. Ain't no other way to go."
