If You Are In America,

and you want a cheap Christmas tree,

for say just $5, this is the sign to lookout for, land owned by the BLM, apparently instead of paying hundreds of dollars for a tree, if you pick your own it only costs $5! “Traditions like these are a great way to learn about public lands,” says Wes Siler, “Forests… are managed for multiple use, so they exist to provide a commercial benefit from timber harvest as well as animal conservation and recreational access. By harvesting a small tree today from an overcrowded grove, we’re actually participating in forest management.” more details about this over at Outside, 

just make sure you pick one you can get home! photograph courtesy: Sudbury Police | Facebook, “Transport your holiday trees responsibly,” said the department in a Facebook post, it is a good point, but for just $5 you can see why some want the biggest they could cut down!
