Between 25 million and 30 million real Christmas trees are sold in the US each year, according to the National Christmas Tree Association.

Yet there are many ways to repurpose your used pine, fir or spruce at home. You could cut it up for firewood, shred it for mulch, build a bird sanctuary with the branches — or you could harvest the needles and Christmas tree needles can be safely removed and used in a variety of recipes, from fish to vinegar to ice cream.“The way that generally I cook with is to use the needles like an herb, in the same way that you might use rosemary.

Use large, sharp scissors to cut upwards so the needles can fall into a large bowl. Wash the needles before use.Vividseats: Official Ticketing Partner of New York Post
