TIME TO DECK THE HALLS! There
is something special about a real tree – the beauty, the aroma, the
traditions. Real Trees are farm grown
here in PA and are environmentally friendly.
This year, treat yourself and your family to a Real Christmas Tree. Nothing says Christmas more than a Real
Christmas Tree from Ecology III Christmas Tree Farm!
OUR DAYS AND HOURS
are the same as last year. We will be open from 9:00 AM until dark every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday beginning Thanksgiving, November 27, 2008.
FRASER FIR, DOUGLAS FIR, BLUE SPRUCE &
CONCOLOR FIR
We have the best selection of
trees in all varieties. It was a great
growing season for the trees in 2008.
This year you will find Fraser Fir and Douglas Fir up to 12 feet and
beautiful! We have Blue Spruce and
Concolor Fir up to 7 feet.
Another wonderful growing
year has produced lots of trees for you to choose from.
We will also have a section
of first quality, premium fresh-cut trees at our regular Choose & Cut
prices.
TREE PRICES.
Tree prices, both choose
& cut and fresh pre-cut, will be the same this year as they have been for
the past two years. Prices are on our
web site at www.ecology3.com
GO GREEN!
Real trees preserve green
space; they support life by absorbing carbon dioxide and other gasses and
emitting fresh oxygen; they are renewable (for every tree harvested growers
plant 1 to 3 new seedlings); and can be recycled for mulch and wildlife
habitat. Real trees are the superior
choice to use as the centerpiece for your Christmas decorating!
CHARLIE BROWN & LUCY TREES!
We will again have our
popular “Charlie Brown” pre-cut section with little trees priced as low as
$5.00. This year, we will have a new
“Lucy” section. We all know Lucy is more
particular than Charlie and she is always looking for a bargain. Bargains are what you’ll find in our “Lucy”
section, with fresh pre-cut trees from
5 to 7 feet at reduced prices
starting at $15.00. So whatever your
budget, everyone can have a real tree for Christmas this year!
WREATHS, SWAGS AND
CEMETERY ITEMS
Our wreath makers will be busy soon cutting fresh fragrant greens and turning them into beautiful decorations for your home. We’ll have a large selection of wreaths, swags, and roping, along with many different cemetery items.
NEW FRASER FIR
SECTION OPENED
Santa is busy cutting grass in our new Fraser Fir section. You won’t have any problem selecting a tree in this section of 7 to 8 foot Fraser Firs.
“TREES FOR TROOPS”
Again this year we are donating trees to the “Trees for Troops” program sponsored by the National Christmas Tree Association and FedEx. In 2007, Trees for Troops delivered nearly 17,000 trees to 37 military bases in seven different countries, including Iraq! One military wife wrote: “I just wanted to say thank you to all who support the Trees for Troops program. We haven’t had a live tree in 12 years and I had forgotten how wonderful they are. The tree is beautiful and smells so good. Thank you for your support and your appreciation – it means a lot to us.” You can read other messages from the military on the National Christmas Tree website at RealChristmasTrees.org.

REAL VS. FAKE
The debate goes on: Is it better for the environment to use a real tree or an artificial tree? The National Christmas Tree Growers website has this factual comparison of real vs. fake trees
