What is the most sustainable Christmas Tree? A real, living Christmas Tree or a reusable plastic Christmas Tree?

To help answer this question I’m chatting with Steve Roberts from Adelaide Hills Christmas Trees. In this episode you'll learn:

  • Where a real Christmas Tree is more sustainable than a plastic variety
  • How long it takes a pine tree to grow into a suitably-sized Christmas Tree
  • What happens to all the Christmas Trees after Christmas
  • Best tips for keeping your real Christmas tree looking fresh
  • How to grow your own real Christmas Tree
  • Other options for Christmas Trees (eg. homemade recyclable trees)
