Oregon Christmas tree grower says drought hurt crop

Portland, Ore. • A Portland Christmas tree grower says his crop is sparse this year because of drought conditions.

KPTV-TV reports Quail Creek Ranch Christmas Trees planted 9,000 trees in the spring, but only about a couple hundred of the trees survived.

Quail Creek owner David Roy says he and his wife, Michelle Roy, have been in the business for decades and this is the worst he's seen.
