Oh Christmas Tree – Earth Fare Style

Upset we cut down some trees? Did you know that Christmas Trees can be a renewable source of energy? Did you know that most cities and counties provide Christmas tree recycling services? So, that tree will turn into paper bags, paper cups, cans and so much more! BUT, if you don’t have that option in your city, do not worry. You can still recycle your Christmas tree!

Here are TIPS to reuse or recycle that Christmas tree after your holiday celebration:

1.) Save the lazy birds! Make a bird shelter from your tree. It’s easy. Keep the Christmas tree in its stand and out it in your yard (take the ornaments off!). The birds that can’t make it to Key West this season, will get a safe haven from the cold and you will get some good bird watching!

2.) Defrost your Garden! Trim off the branches from the tree and place them over the garden beds, in order to reduce the frost heaving caused by freezing and thawing. The trunk of the tree can be used for making homemade trellises or tomato stakes.

3.) Save the rivers and streams? Did you know your Christmas tree can help with erosion?…You can use the tree to make sand and soil erosion barriers, especially at a beach or on a riverbed.

4.) FREE mulch. The branches of a Christmas tree can be removed, chipped and used as mulch in the garden.

Happy Holidays!
