This year we got a tree from a tree farm, which was slightly more expensive, but I think it was cut same day. It barely soaks up any water, and barely any needles fall off if you brush the tree. In fact barely any needles came off when we brought it in and set it up, which was remarkable.
xoB mentioned how early in the year he saw xmas trees coming down south from Maine? Was it August?

True about the forests. whew...and good for you for buying local UT. I had one of those trees last year. It wasn't drinking water. I thought it was sick. lol
We bought an eco-friendly tree this year. well eco-friendly depending on which side of my tensil tree your sitting on.
I guess I didn't want to mess up my new car.

I never thought about where the rest of the country gets their trees.
Trees cut in August!
I am barely believing it.
