The GSPCA are very excited to announce we are selling locally grown Christmas Trees from Monday raising funds for the many animals in our care and for our vital work.
Tim Pellett GSPCA Community & Training Officer said “
The GSPCA, in partnership with a local entrepreneur, Mr Henry Browne, are pleased to announce from Monday 23rd November 2020, we will be selling, ‘chose your very own’ Guernsey grown festive trees, still fresh and in the ground. These trees are traditional Blue Spruces https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_spruce come in various sizes from 5.5 to 13 feet tall (2m-4m). Blue Spruces have an exceptionally low ‘needle drop’ and will last well throughout the festive period. As all trees are locally grown, the carbon footprint is reduced, supply chain and logistics minimised, your money will be returning into the local economy and it is aimed to plant new sapling trees to offset the uproot to ensure a sustainable and healthy future for all.
Your seasonal tree will be available to buy Monday to Friday from Monday 23rd November 2020. A decorated tree from the field will be on display for you to view and will be situated at the entrance to AJ Troalics and Sons Andorra Braye Du Valle Crossroads St Sampson’s.
