Reminder: Christmas Tree recycling
We will collect Christmas trees for recycling on your recycling day from through Friday, February 3, 2012. Remember to remove all decorations.
Gardeners: those Christmas trees are ground up into mulch, which is available at no charge from our Mulch Preserves in Derwood and Poolesville. If you want a pine-rich blend, now is a great time to stock up. Bring your own containers and tools for loading. (And, for tips on growing veggies, don't miss the University of Maryland's Grow It, Eat It Program.)
