At Christmas it’s almost a necessity for every household to get a tree and decorate it. For families who take a lot of pride in this, it’s a festive feeling that can’t be beaten.
Christmas Waste Should Stop
However, what we don’t think about is how many trees don’t see the inside of a home. It is estimated that around 6 million or 9,000 tonnes of Christmas trees are thrown away after Christmas, that’s roughly 5 times what the London eye weighs.
Mind, Body & Soil’s Solution
In the UK, we only recycle a sixth of all trees bought. Mind, Body & Soil thought it would be a good idea to up that fraction a little and repot a tree to minimise waste this year. In the Wellness Wonderland box, you have all the components you need to have a comfortable, relaxing night in while it’s cold outside. While helping the environment at the same time, there is nothing more important than setting aside some me-time. Even repotting your plant is seen as meditative and therapeutic by many. Give it a go!
A Perfect Winter’s Day Activity
Winter is also a perfect time to think ahead and start planting bulb flower that would bloom perfectly in time for spring. Bulb flowers include daffodils, tulips, bluebells, lilies, gladioli and canna lilies. Teach yourself some patience through plants! And look how gorgeous some of these are.
