As the December lights begin to illuminate the streets, the question arises in every household: will we opt for a natural or artificial Christmas tree this year?The natural tree is a pillar of Christmas traditions. Contrary to popular belief, these trees do not come from wild forests, but are the fruit of a dedicated and passionate cultivation that takes around 10 years to reach our living rooms. In France, this tradition supports a significant agricultural activity and creates 1,000 permanent jobs and 3,000 seasonal jobs. Catherine Muller, president of Valhor, emphasizes the importance of choosing a tree from France for its low environmental impact and excellent quality. These firs come from sustainable farming, where the use of synthetic insecticides and fungicides is limited in favor of organic and natural methods. In addition, they contribute to biodiversity and serve as valuable CO2 sensors during their growth.
