Show Try Growing Christmas Trees If you have a plot of land and aren't sure what to do with it, why not put it to work growing Christmas trees? If you have the patience to wait a few years until harvest time, a Christmas tree plantation plan-tation can be an enjoyable and very profitable venture. On one acre of land you can plant 1,742 trees. If you sell these trees for ten dollars each, that acre of land can earn you $17,420 dollars. Seedlings are also available for use on other conservation oriented projects pro-jects such as windbreaks, soil stabilization, wildlife habitat, and reforestation. The price of these seedlings is $10 per hundred or $75 per thousand. For further information you may contact the Southeastern Area Forester at 94 East Center in Moab, P.O.
