Meet Tony Stefani, husband and father of four, who works with his dad to grow cut-your-own Michigan Christmas trees. He and Carla visit about:
- What it’s like to work all year for a business open nine days
- What you should do when you visit a U-Choose/U-Cut farm
- A family Thanksgiving tradition
- The different scents of tree varieties (you may remember this from last year’s Harvest Hangout with Tom Trechter)
- How he spends his time when he’s not working two jobs and completing a bachelor’s degree
- A book recommendation
- How Michigan Christmas trees get their (lengthy) start
- His favorite meal with endless possibilities
- His favorite quest with kids
- A more famous Stefani with a similar lifestyle (that’s a joke!)
