The White House's Christmas tree is slated to be cut and transported from a North Carolina farm on Wednesday .

The farm lost thousands of trees to a mudslide, but many more survived, including a 20-foot conical tree.

The biggest challenge for farmers across western North Carolina has been fixing infrastructure on their property.

The tree will be presented to the First Lady Jill Biden in front of the White House in December .

It will be decorated in the Blue Room .

The farm has some obstacles to overcome, including finding places to buy seedlings after Helene devastated some greenhouses.

It's been a tough year because of Helene , and harvest season is already difficult enough.
