A visit to the Tree Riders

The Tree Riders arrived late last week outside St. Mark's Church-in-the-Bowery here on Second Avenue between 10th Street and 11th Street... as they set up to start their 10th season — the longest-tenured tree sellers in the neighborhood — in their usual spot.

EVG contributor Stacie Joy was on hand as the Tree Riders got to work...
... and people were ready to buy a tree for the season...
You can keep up with the Tree Riders via Instagram.

Great bunch of guys. Always a treat to have them back in the neighborhood.

Removed my mask (nobody was in sight) to breathe in the wonderful scent of pine as I walked through this morning.

They are right across the street from me, and look forward to walking by the trees.

This reminds me how much I miss the tree vendor outside Rite Aid on First Ave. They've not been able to set up because of the construction that's been going on there for years now. I used to love walking down that block like it was a forest. I really hope they can return next year.

Are they sending their best?

I love the 3' ones and then the like 30' ones on the side that are not for lobbies but people's homes!
