Facts Tree Facts and Information Trees are a renewable, recyclable resource.
Artificial trees contain non-biodegradable plastics and metals.
Christmas tree rotations are much shorter than timber rotations. It takes 4 to 15 years to grow marketable Christmas trees. In comparison, timber production requires at least 20 to 30 years. Christmas trees require less ground cover disturbance than many agricultural crops. Plus they can be produced on land which is only marginally productive for other agricultural uses.
