Visitors come from miles around to enjoy the magnificent scenery and partake of all the fun.
Winnsboro is known as the Christmas Tree Capital of Texas. There are several Christmas tree farms where one can take the whole family to select and cut the perfect tree. Ride in an old fashioned wagon to the site where your special tree is growing. During this season, Winnsboro also offers an array of lighted homes, Santa Claus parade, community caroling, nativity scenes, and scores of other seasonal activities for the individual or family.
