It's funny becuase I was researching this topic (that is how I found your blog) and before i hit this site I found a company that sells REAL Christmas Trees online called www.premiumchristmastree.com. I was actually a little suprised that you could buy Real Christmas Trees online but if you can buy a FORD mustang online it doesnt reall suprise me that much. Anyways I think I'm gonna try the online real Christmas Tree this year. I’m a REAL Christmas Tree guy all the way!

I'll definitely be back, and I'll be subscribing too. You definitlely gave me some food for thought as far as trees go. One thing you didn't mention was the flammability of live trees. I didn't know that fake trees were so dangerous though. I have a toddler, so I am very concerned about lead AND pesticides AND fire. So, I'll be looking for an organic/pesticide free live tree, and we'll unplug the lights most of the time to prevent fires. If you get a chance, join my Crayon Writer community on MyBlogLog, and check out my blog itself. Keep up the good work! Hi! I found you on MyBlogLog, and I’m glad I did. What an interesting site.

In addition to christmas tree recycling centers some florists will accept portions of the tree for use. Also, try different ways you can recycle it yourself from kwanzaa wreathes, potpourri, and garden food, pond habitat, or for kindling the fireplace. I support going with the live tree.
