Jacksonville Tree Trimming Options
It’s that time of year again, the holidays filled with family, laughter and of course that once a year Christmas tree purchase. Years ago, many Christmas celebrators actually when out into the forest and cut down their own Christmas or yuletide tree. In the age of buying someone else’s Christmas trees, at a Christmas tree farm or stand, the trees were cut and sold exactly as they had grown and it was up to the actually buyer of the tree to trim the extra branches and long branches of the tree to give it its refined look and shape. That is where the phrase “trimming the tree” came from. But in today’s world the Christmas tree growers cut, trim and shape their Christmas trees. This makes the trees more attractive and easier to sell. When someone purchases a freshly cut holiday tree today it looks the way it does because it has been professionally trimmed, balanced and shaped during its growing cycle. Only well balanced and shapely trees are cut and shipped to market. That old saying of “trimming the Christmas tree” has taken on a new meaning in today’s modern world. Decorating and adorning the tree with lights, bulbs, garland, family and cherished heirlooms and of course an angel or star on top, is not only our way of “trimming the tree” but adds to the look and feel of Christmas trees as we know them today.
