Hello

We had a nice fir tree this year for the daughters & their families who we hosted for Christmas; 3 yr old grandson loved playing with the ornaments he could reach! The tree's looking tired by now so I'll undecorate on Jan. 2.

We usually just haul the tree out into the woods to "rot in peace" but a local guy posted a photo on NextDoor of his pet goats happily chomping on a Christmas tree with the caption, "We love eating Christmas trees! Please donate yours and we'll take care of it." So I'll contact him to come by and get ours for his goats' enjoyment!

One of the farmers down the road have 3 or 4 sheep. We call them when we're done with the sweet corn and sunflowers and they bring sythes over, whack it all down, and haul it home for treats for their sheep. Nice of them to clean out our garden. They're both MD doctors so odd they'll go to all this work for a truckload of stalks, but it's cool.

Our tree will be fed to some neighborhood goats too!

I'd like an outdoor tree that would look like a white pine indoor tree. Not sure what type of pine we can get to grow and stay small enough for 5-10 years and tolerate the heat here.
