More Christmas tree stand choices for you

Just adding to Friday's post on the arrival of the East Village Christmas tree stands/holiday markets/whatever.

The stands are up and running on East Houston at Essex ...

...and outside Whole Foods Bowery...


So they join the stands on East 14th Street and First Avenue ... outside Rite Aid on First Avenue ... and outside St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery on Second Avenue... Was thinking about doing a price comparison, but, you know, the trees aren't marked. And the sales often seem subjective... with plenty of bargaining.

In recent years, I bought trees at Stuyvesant Grocery and East Village Farms. And they're both closed. Maybe I'll wait for someone to throw his or her tree away...

    Are those Whole Foods Christmas Trees free-range, grass-fed, artisanal, sustainable, local, craft, hydroponic, farm-to-table, recyled trees? Or just regular trees?

    Where's the newspaper verification for those trees?
