Cash for Trash - Wisconsin Christmas Tree Farmers Go Green for the Troops
What is Cash for
Trash?
CASH FOR TRASH is a new program organized by Wisconsin Christmas Tree
Producers Association to encourage consumers to go green and buy a FARM
GROWN REAL CHRISTMAS TREE, and in the process will help the TREES FOR
TROOPS program ( www.treesfortroops.org
)
Here
is how it works:
1) Customers bring an artificial Christmas tree to a participating farm
or retail lot and then purchase a REAL tree.
2) The tree farmer will dispose of the tree.
3) The tree farmer will also donate $5.00 to the Christmas Spirit
Foundation's TREES FOR TROOPS program for each tree exchange/purchase.
Why
are we doing this?
This is an effort by the Wisconsin Christmas tree growers and retailers
to help the Troops by donating money to TREES FOR TROOPS and to improve
our environment by disposing of the trash (artificial tree) in the
landfill and replacing it with an eco-friendly farm grown real Christmas
tree.
