Sustainable Christmas trees help you plan ahead
Who care about Halloween? The best thing about the end of October is that we're heading toward the really good holidays -- like Christmas. So you might as well start planning -- and while you're at it, let's look at one way you can have a more sustainable celebration: buy your tree from Oregon's Noble Vintage Live.
You get the tree now, let it hang out on your deck or terrace for the rest of the fall, then move it inside for decorating, presents, etc. When you're done with the seasonal revelry, you can then plant the tree in your yard -- thus avoiding any unnecessary waste. Fortunately, the trees have a tight, self-contained root season and are 30% lighter than what you'd normally buy, so the planting process will be super easy.
Granted, you could just buy a fake tree, but that's like drinking eggnog that isn't spiked with rum -- not to mention that you'll miss out on that lovely evergreen scent. So get in the spirit! Plant trees! Merry Christmas!
