I’m afraid there will be no tree in this household, real or fake. I’ve got two cats. Cats and christmas trees do not mix very well. :p

I love real Christmas trees….never been a fan of the fake ones. Now I don’t have a choice.lol The other half is allergic, so he can’t be around the real ones. So unfortunately, it’s fake trees from here on out. I definitely encourage others to get real ones though. I don’t know many places nowadays that don’t have a tree pick up deal going. Down here in California, they do it within the first 5 days of January.

I feel shame

I remember when i was a kid we used to haul our tree over to a big empty lot where it would get tossed onto a huge pile of other trees and then the fire department would put the torch to the pile.

Much to our glee.

“2. Local Christmas tree farms grow the trees for this very specific purpose, and you can rest assured that as soon as you hack your tree down, another seedling is planted in its place.”

you hit the nail on the head. my sister was having an argument with someone at work that was chastising her for “chopping down a real tree”. she replied with just that. these trees are grown for this purpose and are replanted. her tree wouldn’t otherwise exist if not grown for the purpose of being a christmas tree.

Excellent points…maybe I shouldn’t donate my tree stand to the SallyAnn. Maybe next year we can get fresh. The only drawback it that is will only be in the house for two instead of the usual four weeks.
