December 2021 NJFA's "Backyard Forestry in 90 Minutes" Program

Make a cup of hot chocolate, top it with whipped cream and relax as we explore the roots of greeneries used in holiday traditions.
Where do Christmas trees come from? What is a Yule log? Why do we kiss under the mistletoe? Learn about this and more as BYF takes a holiday journey through history with Holiday Greens and Traditions. We will briefly explore the lore and allure of some of our most popular and favorite holiday greens used in traditional decorations.
"Backyard Forestry in 90 Minutes" is a free educational program series sponsored by NJ Forestry Association, State Forestry Services & Rutgers Cooperative Extension. The program, now online, takes place live on the THIRD Thursday of every month from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm.
