Evergrow Christmas Trees

Last but not least, we come to the most interesting (and eco-conscious) option on this list. Evergrow not only delivers a tree right to your door, but it’s packaged so that it’ll stay alive over the holidays. Once those are over, they’ll come and pick up the tree so that they can replant it! Definitely pricier than a u-cut tree, but worth every penny.
When: Now selling
Where: All around Vancouver
And that’s a wrap on Christmas trees for now, Vancouver. We hope this list helps you explore some great new spots this year.
