Where to Get Your Christmas Tree in Vancouver
Anything worth having involves work, and Christmas trees are no exception. Try cutting your own tree this season, and beam with pride when you’re gathered around it Christmas morning. We know just where to go to get the deed done in the Lower Mainland, but note that opening times vary between the last week of November and the first week of December, and most tree farms close when the sun goes down (darkness and hacksaws make strange bedfellows) so plan accordingly.
I Want Candy
Sometimes it’s nice to be a little different—especially at Halloween. So sweeten up your candy selection with some specialty candies from our fave candy shops around town. You might even find some great sugar free, guilt free and gluten free candies to dole out as well.
