christmas tree farm tis the season fun for the whole family uxbridge twp the annual christmas tree hunt is on with a large number of christmas tree farms n this im mediate area local buyers should have little difficulty finding one that suits their need operators warn though that trees will be in short supply this year two local christmas tree growers miss ruth spademan and miss norma shearer have already sold all the trees they had available for wholesale purchase while a good selection is still on hand for retail sales anyone wishing to buy wholesale is out of luck these two ladies have been in the business 20 years they presently run what amounts to two different operations a retail outlet at their residence on church st in markham and a cutyourown lot on their tree farm on uxbridges 6th con cession unlike most tree farms theirs is open to the public daily this year miss spademan expects to turn over a total volume of about 4000 trees there have been better years she says and annual sales of 5000 wouldnt be unusual the battle now is being waged between artificial trees and the real variety miss spademan estimates that 30 to 35 percent of homes in toronto use artificials she admits that these aluminum- andplastic creations might be more con venient in some cases but points to the ob vious advantages of a real tree a tree farm provides an ecological balance stabilizing water tables and preventing disastrous flooding in addition the real tree is biodegradable in a world increasingly concerned with pollution the stand taken by miss spademan and miss shearer makes a lot of sense their uxbridge tree farm is 200 acres in size but not all of this is devoted to trees the best specimens ac cording to miss shearer are in the lot set aside for people to come in and cut their own they dont cut out the best trees for wholesale as some lots do the price difference is not significant a 6- foot tree bought from the lot in markham costs 350 if you cut it yourself there is a flat irate of 300 anyone determined to cut his own tree is warned to dress warmly and bring his own saw cutting your own christmas tree offers a lot of appeal not only do you help preserve the ecology and contribute towards employment in the area but its a lot of fun as well ask any 10yearold young canadas book week excellent response by doris lapp librarian stouffville
