Horse Creek Tree Farm is truly family owned and operated.  From planting tree seedlings in the spring to harvesting mature trees in the winter to making wreaths and roping, family members do it all. The farm has been in the family since the 1940's.  The land was originally owned by Gwyn and Opal Stansberry.  At that time, corn, tobacco and pole beans were the crops of choice.  In the 1970's, the land was passed on to his son and daughter-in-law, Joseph and Brenda Stansberry.  Joseph planted the first Fraser Fir Christmas trees on the family land in 1989.  This consisted of approximately 4500 trees.  In 1990's, after marrying Joseph's daughters, Julie and Jennifer, Kevin Jones and Thomas Russell joined the farming operation.  The family has grown a lot since the inception of Horse Creek Tree Farm, and Joseph and Brenda are proud grandparents four times over.  Ada (6 years old), Josie (4 years old), Abigail (3 years old), Will (2 year old), Eimmie (six weeks old) are the next generation of Horse Creek Tree Farm.
