"It's very upsetting to know that people would come and just take something that you worked hard for," Christmas tree stand owner Jody Wooley said.
Jody says she was returning from a lunch break when she spotted a man and a woman sitting inside of a Chevrolet pick-up truck.
When Jody's husband approached the truck, the couple took off.

Jody says she noticed a tree in the back of the truck and tried to follow the vehicle, but had no luck.
The Wooley family decided to fight back by printing a message in red on their tree tent.
Freeport police are looking for a brown or tan Chevy pick-up truck with a licence plate that partially reads JTP.
