Our goats want your trees!
Every holiday season we offer a pick up or drop off option for your used Christmas Trees and we want yours!
Please find the answers you want to know on this page and scroll down to sign up for pick up!
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE USED TREES?
We feed them to our goats! Goats adore the trees and serve as extra nutrition for them (and a treat!) during the winter months. They also LOVE to rub up against the bark.
WHAT KIND OF TREE DO YOU WANT?
Any live tree, garland or wreath that has not been sprayed with any type of mist or fake snow or pesticide. Goats will be eating it, so we don't want to feed them anything that isn't 100% natural.
CAN I DROP OFF MY TREE?
Yes! Starting on December 26, 2024 you can drop off your tree at the Ranch located at 1535 Lime Kiln Road, Charlotte, VT 05445. If you drop off your tree there is absolutely no charge, just appreciation! Please drop off the tree by the lower barn. You will see pallets laid out. We ask that you drop the trees there.
CAN YOU COME GET MY TREE?
YES! We charge for tree pick up and all net proceeds go to After Action, our 501(c)3 non-profit that helps trauma survivors rebuild their lives. If you'd like to give more you can donate directly at www.myafteraction.org/donate.
One Average/Small Tree: $15
One XLarge Tree: $25
Two or more Average Trees: $25
Two or more XLarge Trees: $35
***PLEASE NOTE: WE ONLY PICK UP TREES IN CHARLOTTE AND SHELBURNE***
WHEN WILL YOU PICK UP THE TREES?
We will have two big pick up weekends: December 27-29 and January 4-5. If you want to hold onto your tree a little longer, please pick 'custom' and we will try to accommodate you. Please have your tree out by 10am on the morning of pick up.
