HOLDERNESS — Instead of cutting down a tree, or unpacking a plastic one from a box, consider enjoying a living Christmas tree inside your home during the holidays, which you can later plant outside.

Homegrown NH’s Emma Erler, lead horticulturist at Kirkwood Gardens at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center, says the investment of time and effort is a way to keep Christmas memories alive year after year, without the guilt of cutting down a tree that gets thrown away a few weeks later.
