MulchFest provides New Yorkers an opportunity to bring their Christmas trees to designated sites where they are ground into wood chips. The chips can then be placed in tree pits and gardens. Parks & Recreation encourages New Yorkers to help the environment and their community by participating in this event. MulchFest 2010 takes place on January 9 & 10, 2010, from 10:00am to 2:00pm. Participants are encouraged to bring bags to take advantage of the free mulch provided.
-
All lights, ornaments, and decorations must be removed from the trees prior to drop-off.
-
Participants will be able to take wood chips and/or mulch home from designated chipping sites. Mulch will be available at Fort Greene Park, so bring your own bags.
This event is sponsored by the Fort Greene Association, Society for Clinton Hill, and by the Fort Greene Park Conservancy, working with the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation.
