The aroma of a fresh pine or fir tree can bring the remembrance of a joyful Christmas past . And there ’ s nothing quite like having a bit of nature in our homes , in the form of a lovely green tree .
There are several area tree farms where you can cut down your own tree , but if you ’ re not feeling much like a lumberjack , the staff will cut , bale and load the tree into your car . Just visiting these lovely farms in the countryside is a holiday treat in itself . Many of them are family-owned and have been growing trees for several decades .
If you ’ re not able to make it out to a tree farm , there are many locally owned nurseries and garden centers you can visit for a great selection . Many of these small businesses have strong relationships with excellent tree growers and provide wonderful trees . When you buy local , you help support small businesses .
After Christmas , you can recycle your tree by using it for mulch in the garden , composting , or even crafts .
