According to the National Christmas Tree Association, every year, Americans buy 25 to 30 million real Christmas trees to decorate their homes over the holidays. As December comes to a close, it’s time to clean out your holiday decor and get rid of your Christmas trees. Although some people may decide to keep their festive trees up for another month (or two!), many start the new year by throwing out them out.
Instead of just placing them in the trash or tossing it to the curb of your house, why not give your tree a second life and make some eco-friendly choices? Consider one of these eco-friendly alternatives. For instance, you can turn the tree into mulch for your future gardening needs or you can even donate the tree to a zoo, where it’s used to feed the animals.
