New York Christmas Tree Vendors: Hard Work

December 12, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

Don't fool yourself. For all that holiday cheer and delicious scent of pine and twinkling lights amid green needles, the work to  prepare the firs for sale is back-breaking hard. The trees are heavy, the saw is sharp, the baler is tricky to manipulate. The work, day and night, is long. Temperatures can be bone-chilling. These image of "La Petite" speak for themselves.
