Real Christmas Tree FAQs

Why choose a REAL Christmas tree?
Get ready for the full holiday experience! The smell, touch, and look of a real tree add that special magic. Beyond nostalgia, real Christmas tree farms in Niagara play a part in cutting carbon emissions, providing oxygen for 18 people per tree, and creating habitats for wildlife. Support local farms, make lasting memories, and ditch the imported artificial trees.

Am I harming the forest by choosing a real tree?
Nope! Christmas trees are grown on farms, not hacked from forests. It’s a crop thing. For every tree harvested, ten more are in the pipeline, ensuring sustainable practices.

Is tree farming harmful to our environment?
Absolutely not! Christmas trees, except in cultivated forests, are super eco-friendly. They’re harvested after ten years, and 90% of the farm must stay tree-covered always, securing future harvests.

How are real Christmas trees beneficial to our environment?
These trees are environmental heroes. They produce oxygen, act as pollution filters, and host a wildlife haven, supporting various bird and mammal species.

Will my Christmas tree cause problems at the landfill site after Christmas?
No worries. Most places collect discarded trees, chipping them for mulching materials. Real Christmas trees are biodegradable; they break down naturally, returning nutrients to the soil. Plus, they can serve as bird feeders or wildlife cover in ponds and woodlots.

Where does the tradition of evergreens at Christmas originate?
A blast from the past! Ancient winter celebrations had decorated trees as symbols of life. The tradition stuck, evolving through history. Canada joined the Christmas tree party in 1781, and the evergreen continues to symbolize renewed life and universal hope during the festive season.
