Top 5 Reasons to Buy a Christmas Tree Online

Each year in the United States, the number of purchasers of real Christmas trees grows at a rate of between 25 to 50 %. The following are the top reasons for the increasing sale of real Christmas trees on-line.

Reason No. 1: BUYING A REAL CHRSTMAS TREE HELPS THE AMERICAN ECONOMY.

On-line purchasers of real Christmas trees support the American economy. There are more than 21,000 American Christmas tree growers with more than one-half million acres planted in Christmas trees. The American Christmas tree industry sales more than 30 million trees annually and employs over 100,000 Americans on a full or part-time basis. Real Christmas trees are grown in all 50 states. See the Christmas tree facts published by the National Christmas Tree Association at www.christmastree.org/facts.cfm.

Reason No. 2: BUYING A REAL CHRISTMAS TREE HELPS THE ENVIRONMENT.

On-line purchasers of real Christmas trees are concerned about the environment and want to contribute to the well-being of the earth. One acre of real Christmas trees produces enough oxygen to supply the daily oxygen needs of 18 people. In the United States, real Christmas trees produce enough oxygen for 9 million people daily. Real Christmas trees are recyclable. See the Christmas tree facts published by the National Christmas Tree Association at www.christmastree.org/facts.cfm.

Reason No. 3: BUYING A REAL CHRISTMAS TREE ON-LINE IS CONVENIENT AND HASSLE-FREE.

On-line purchasers of real Christmas trees like the convenience of a point and click purchase sitting at their home computer. They want to avoid the hassle of trudging through Christmas tree lots in inclement weather to buy trees cut 4-6 weeks prior to their purchase. They want to avoid hauling a tree home on top of their car. They like their Christmas tree arriving on their doorstep fresh from a Christmas tree farm.

Reason No. 4: BUYING A REAL CHRISTMAS TREE ON-LINE ASSURES THE FRESHNESS AND THE SAFETY OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE.

Real Christmas trees purchased on-line usually arrive at the front door of the purchaser within 3-5 days after they have been cut. A freshly cut Christmas tree is a much safer Christmas tree. Tannenbaums.com will ship freshly-cut Christmas trees to your home within 2-3 days of cutting.

Reason No. 5: BUYING A REAL CHRISTMAS TREE ON-LINE ASSURES THE QUALITY OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE

Most on-line retailers of real Christmas trees guarantee the quality of the trees they sell based on US Department of Agriculture standards. For a copy of the USDA quality standards, see www.ams.usda.gov/standards/christtr.pdf.

Most tree lots and Big Box retail outlets neither guarantee the quality or the freshness of their trees.
