Bring your holiday tree to Mulchfest to be recycled into mulch to nourish plantings in the parks all year long! You can watch your tree devolve and evolve in person!
The wood chips are used to nourish trees and plants on streets and gardens citywide. And here’s the best part—on "chipping weekend," (Saturday, January 11-Sunday, January 12) you can take a bag of Christmas tree mulch home with you!
Drop-offs begin at 74 sites citywide on Thursday, December 26.
