Christmas tree farms grow trees specifically to allow customers to chop them down at the holidays so you don’t have to worry that you may be clear-cutting a forest.
There are also multiple ways the trees are recycled. In San Antonio, for instance, the Solid Waste Management Department collects trees in early January and turns them into mulch which is then provided to the public for free.
Here are some Christmas tree farms in the San Antonio and Austin areas if you’re looking to take a little holiday adventure:
