The government announces a family friendly Christmas tree cutting at a designated site along the Trans Canada highway 55 miles east of Richer. Permits cost 25 and limit one tree per person up to five per party with family friendly facilities at the site.
Buying the tree too early risks dryness and flammable resins as leaves fall. If obtained more than a week before Christmas, keep it outdoors, covered with snow if possible. When brought indoors, trim bottom twigs and place in a container with about ten inches of wet sand and water.
