Christmas tree millionaires

[Ty Korrigan]

Seriously, do they exist in the UK?

In the Kent area...

 I've a colleague who swears his cousin is a multi-millionaire off the back of Christmas tree sales.

 He refers to him as though he was Ronaldo Beckham golden boots and either I swallow his endless drivel or stow his gob with a few factoids of my own.

   Cheers

You ever come across the chatty expat who waves an arm at an acre of bog and proclaims he is going to plant Xmas trees?

Or come across a field full of weeds and chloritic stunted 'pines' because when your that thick anything green is a Xmas tree...

Well yeah, course.

The economics of Xmas tree sales should be fairly easy to unravel.

How old are they?

How much care do they need before harvesting?

What species fetch the best money?

I took £450 today selling 7 trees  .. I probably could of made 1k plus if I’d gone and done tree work for the same hours but then I could of not sorted out my house log shed whilst waiting for 7 people all day…if any one wants to buy a few thousand lodgepole or norways let me know at any time 😆

£6 each and you can sell them for £30 + = 30k
