Hide AdShannon Rebill, who runs the seasonal firm with her partner, said: “There are people out there who can’t afford a tree and we thought why not donate our last few?
“It is the first time we have sold Christmas trees but we have sold pumpkins in the past and next year hope to donate any left-over pumpkins to charity too.”
Shannon says the response to their trees this year has been ‘brilliant’ and they only had a few trees left after starting with about 70.
