News
After nearly 40 years with the Walton and Nash families, the torch for the Elgin Christmas Tree Farm has been passed to its new owners.
In a nutshell
Damian and Leia Prause took over the tree farm in April. Leia said the decision was made after Twyla Nash—the former owner and eldest daughter of the original owners, Bill and Kay Walton—passed away in late 2022.
“We consider the Nash family great friends of ours from the Texas Christmas Tree Growers Association,” Leia said. “We are grateful for this opportunity to keep the tradition going for even more families here in Texas.”
