Have you ever been and chosen your very own locally grown Christmas tree in Guernsey?
This Sunday the GSPCA will be at a location to be released on Saturday where you can come and choose from 900 locally grown Christmas trees.
The Blue Spruces make fantastic festive trees and what better way to choose a tree fresher than any you may have had before.
We will also be selling a small selection on Saturday from our Market stall in St Peter Port and will have one on display at the Shelter from Friday.
The tree's have been growing for the last 8 years on island and vary in size up to around 6 feet.
The owner of the land and trees has been waiting a long time for this moment and will be replanting Christmas tree's in the field once they have all been homed for Christmas.
The owner has kindly donated the tree's to raise funds for the Shelter and we will be asking for minimum donations on Sunday and at our stall and indeed at the Shelter from next week.
Donations can be taken not only in cash but also by using our online paypal link via your phone on the day.
So why not bring your family on Sunday to choose your locally grown Christmas tree.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "We rehome all sorts of animals from the GSPCA and this Sunday we will be rehoming locally grown Christmas tree's which all look fantastic from tall bushy one's to small stubby one's."
"We are hugely thankful to the owner of the land who has spent the last 8 years growing the tree's and is looking to replant more next year."
"On Saturday we will release the location of where they are and on Sunday between 10am and 4pm the GSPCA team will be manning the field to help you choose your tree."
"You will be able to cut the tree yourself, dig it up with its roots or a team member can do it for you."
"The money raised will not only go back towards planting more tree's for future years the vast majority will go towards helping the hundreds of animals at the GSPCA this Christmas."
If you would like to be emailed the location on Saturday please let [email protected] know or even order a tree to be delivered next week if there are any left.
We will release the information online on Saturday through our website and social media.
Prices will vary on sizes and also be released on Saturday but this is a unique chance for your family to do something very special this Christmas.
Delivery can also be arranged in addition.
