Here in the Pacific Northwest we have quite an abundance of evergreens to forage. You may have plenty in your own yard for gathering. If not, check out your local nursery. If they sell Christmas trees, they are sure to sell the boughs as well.

All you need when gathering your branches is a large pruner. Add an additional smaller pruner for indoor trimming and you are set! A mixture of noble, pine, and cedar will give you a variety of textures to work with.

The most fragrant? Pine, of course!
