We've never had a real tree, and the thought of needles all over the place and the inherent fire risk have never appealed to me. I like the thought of this service, though, for those real tree lovers out there. I'm using my parents' old tree, which is the only tree I remember having, so it has to be a good 25 years old. And I just took advantage of Home Depot's light recycling program where they gave you $3 off LED lights for every set of standard lights you brought in. The old lights get salvaged for usable components and the rest recycled. Every year we get a Hallmark ornament from our godparents, so I have quite a collection of those to go with some ornaments I made as a child (mom was going to get rid of them!). I guess my tree is as eco-friendly as I can make it.
