‘Tis the season for that piney smell of Christmas/holiday trees to permeate the air on sidewalks around New York City and Fort Greene-Clinton Hill is no exception. Outdoor tree shops dot the neighborhoods every few blocks and if you have been meaning to get a real tree for your house this year, but haven’t gotten one yet, there’s still time! Here are five spots — some of them run by locals! — to check out:

  • Fulton and South Portland Streets, northeast corner
  • Lafayette Avenue and Fort Greene Place, outside Brooklyn Medical Plaza
  • Adelphi Street and Myrtle Avenue, southeast corner
  • Vanderbilt and Myrtle Avenues, southeast corner
  • Hall Street and Myrtle Avenue, northwest corner

Are we missing any? Where is your favorite tree shopping spot?
