It's Christmas time in Tree Town and all the Trees are dying to look their best.

After a string of disappearances, Small Paul (the puniest tree in Tree Town) and Noel (the mayor's daughter) begin to question Tree Town's relationship with the venerated Farmer Todd—who has been acting particularly strange as of late. Will this unlikely duo crack the case before the annual Christmas Pageant? Or will the Trees of Tree Town discover the true meaning of aXemas this year...

An Axemas Story is a sappy send-up of capitalism, Christmas shows, 80s tropes and the religious right—but mostly, it's a very silly show with a lot of tree puns.
