Benefits of a REAL Christmas Tree
Benefits of a REAL Christmas Tree
REAL Christmas Trees Benefit the Environment
Evergreens absorb carbon dioxide and other gases while releasing fresh oxygen.
Christmas tree farms stabilize soil, protect water supplies, provide habitat for wildlife, and preserve beautiful green spaces.
Many trees are grown on land that may not be suitable for other agricultural crops.
REAL Christmas Trees are Renewable
For every tree harvested, growers typically plant one to three new seedlings to replace it.
Artificial trees are primarily made from petroleum-based plastics.
REAL Christmas Trees are 100% Recyclable
After the holidays, real trees can be recycled into mulch, used for wildlife habitat, or repurposed in other ways.
Artificial trees are not biodegradable and can remain in landfills for centuries after they are discarded.
REAL Christmas Trees are made in the USA
Real Christmas trees are grown right here in the United States by American farmers.
Choosing a real tree supports U.S. farms, local businesses, and communities.
