      It would seem much easier to squish them all together to the truck instead of adding cans and cardboard rolls.
  • You could in theory grow a harvestable tree every seven years, so growing seven such could provide you with a tree every year. Several northern states are the most prolific producers. https://www.realchristmastrees.org/dnn/Education/Quick-Tree-Facts
  • I've had the same Christmas tree for a long time, I didn't buy a new one last year.
