  1. Essex's Leading Tree Surgeons WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR REAL XMAS TREE AFTER CHRISTMAS

  2. Christmas trees are naturally beautiful. They add to the beauty of the season. Whether you choose to buy an artificial or a real Christmas tree, each comes with its own benefits. • An artificial Christmas tree is safer if you want to keep your house in the holiday mood for long.  • Real ones, on the other hand, can live a little bit longer if you take good care of it.  • Here are some things that you can do with your real Xmas tree.

  3. 1. MULCHING • Mulching is one of the best ways to recycle your real Christmas tree. Make compost out of your tree’s needles or woodchips.  • Mulching also allows the soil to breathe more naturally without being getting compacted or dense. 2. MAKE IT A WILDLIFE HABITAT • Birds love to hang on trees and you can hang different bird feeders in the tree for them near your house. • Use bird feeders to attract critters to feed and nest in the tree branches. 3. THRIVING FISH RESERVE • A real Christmas tree can also make an excellent and thriving fish reserve. • As time passes by, algae will start to grow on the Christmas tree. Fish will feed on the algae and the tree will protect them from possible predators. 

  4. 4. FIREWOOD • Real Christmas trees are often heavy sap trees. This means you can use old sap to make firewood for your campfires at home or during any other outdoor event. • They burn fast and hot hence, ideal for campfires or bonfires. 5. ASH THE GARDEN TO MAKE IT MORE FERTILE • After a bonfire, you can use the ashes to make your garden more fertile. • Wood ash has lime and potassium among other essential nutrients that help plants to thrive. 6. REAL CHRISTMAS TREES CAN SERVE AS GARDEN INSULATORS • Instead of throwing away your Christmas tree, you can cut off the branches, and beautifully lay them on your garden. • This is usually an effective way of helping your plants to preserve temperatures to help them brave through cold seasons.

  5. 7. HOME FRESHENERS • If your tree is still green after Christmas. Store or wrap the tree or strips in a paper bag sachet.  • This will help to maintain the freshness of the needles and the scent of the tree keeping your home smelling fresh. 8. BEAUTIFUL COASTERS • The trunk of a real Christmas tree can make beautiful wood coasters. Generally, they are beautiful and attractive and they protect your table from water and spill damages. • However, you need to let the tree to dry completely before you start cutting the trunk. 9. FEEDS FOR YOUR GOATS • Goats love to eat just about anything. Instead of throwing away your Christmas tree, give it to your goats or a neighbor’s goats to chow it down.  • Keep in mind that Christmas trees are rich in nutrients and they provide ample minerals as well as vitamins for goats.

  6. 10. CHRISTMAS TREES CAN SAVE BEACHES • In places that are likely to be hit by Hurricanes, Christmas trees are very important.  • The trees also protect dunes as they act in place of protective natural plant growth. 11. HOMES FOR THE NEEDY • Apart from lighting and brightening up your home during Christmas holiday, Christmas trees also can be used to make a home for the needy. • Donate the tree to nonprofit organizations as they use the trees to make beautiful homes for those in need.  12. A CHIPPER PARTY • After Christmas, you can also invite friends and family to a wood chipper party. • You will be surprised at how beautiful the site and sounds of Christmas tree chipper is. However, you should always maintain the best safety guidelines.

  7. 13. MAKE A BEAUTIFUL PINE NEEDLE POTPOURRI • Fill a large bowl with fallen needles or stems from the pine tree. Add orange rind, cinnamon stick and some lemon in the bowl.  • You may also want to include a nutmeg mixture and whole cloves to the mixture. Store the mixture in a jar or even wrap it beautifully with a newspaper. 14. RECYCLE • There are many garden centers, community groups, and local authorities that recycle Christmas trees. • You can also drop the tree at a nearby designated communal Christmas tree collection point. 15. REPLANT • If you love your Christmas tree so much and you cannot bear the thought of losing it, you can also replant it. •  A point to note is that a Christmas tree can regrow only if you preserve its root ball.
