It’s Christmas time again, and this is my favorite season of the year. It’s an occasion to take a break from the world and spend time with our family and friends. Decorating your Christmas tree is enjoyable and an event we can share with our family during the season.
There are many types of Christmas trees. I would recommend some of the environmentally friendly ones because every year you cut down a tree, it’s just thrown away afterward. So, I have a few options you can consider for an environmentally friendly tree.
First, try renting a tree. There are some urban forest organizations that offer this option. You can rent a tree for up to a month, then you return it, and they help you plant a new tree in your area. Click this link to check out this organization.
“Every year you cut down a tree, it’s just thrown away afterward.”
The second option is to buy a potted tree. The potted trees are live, so if the pot is large enough it can stay in your home after the holiday, or you can plant it in your yard. If you do not want to plant it (or can’t), you’re always allowed to send it back to the nursery or urban forestry organization and they will plant it elsewhere.
Your next option can be to get an artificial tree. Many people think of this as an environmentally friendly option. However, be careful about this because many artificial trees are not made of the correct materials. The classic artificial Christmas trees are made of PVC or metal, and those types are difficult to recycle. I propose you not buy those types of trees. If you want to go for an artificial tree, look for materials such as cardboard or something that’s easy to recycle.
Please send us a photo of what your tree looks like this year! I would love to share those. I hope you enjoy the holidays with your friends and family! If you have any questions concerning real estate, please feel free to reach out to me. I would love to help you.
