With Chandler's rapid growth and development, fewer stretches of empty land are within the City limits, which makes it harder to find tumbleweeds in large quantities. How is It Done?įirst, members of the City's Park Operations Division gather tumbleweeds from the outskirts of the City.
In fact, Chandler is the only city in the southwestern United States that has such a tree. Little did these folks know that they were the first to do such a thing and that it would continue as an annual Christmas tradition from then on. Many members of the community helped create the first tree in Chandler using tumbleweeds that they gathered from around town. This unique Chandler tradition began in 1957, when Chandler resident Earl Barnum raised the idea of a tumbleweed tree after he saw a similar one in Indiana built out of cone-shaped chicken wire with pine boughs stuck in the holes.
