It's that time of year when you stick a bunch of lights and decorations on the outside of your house and bring trees and other shrubbery inside to decorate. (We do it too, but still admit it's a bit of an odd habit.)

With that in mind, here are a few places to find your Christmas tree in the Sacramento area:

Foothills Christmas Trees
Cal Expo, 1600 Exposition Blvd., Sacramento
9 a.m.-8 p.m.

Foothills supplies 10 different tree types, as well as flocking (that fake snow-looking stuff).

Green Acres Nursery and Supply
8501 Jackson Rd., Sacramento
Sunday-Thursday, 8 a.m.-7 p.m.
Friday-Saturday, 8 a.m.-8 p.m.

Green Acres offers free trees for disabled veterans and immediate family members of troops who are actively deployed.

Bambi's Christmas Tree Land
210 S. Harding Blvd., Roseville

Bambi's has both tabletop trees and 100-ft commercial trees.

Chad's Christmas Trees
1300 Jefferson Blvd., West Sacramento

For 20 years, this farm has operated at the site of the family's other venture, Whitey's Jolly Kone.

Take a nice walk along the nature trail and enjoy a picnic at this Apple Hill farm before snagging a tree to take home.
