Recycle Your Christmas Tree This Year
Posted by mrode    on Nov 15, 2014

Choosing a good old-fashioned live Christmas tree is the most sustainable way to celebrate our favorite holiday tradition. Real trees absorb carbon dioxide and emit fresh oxygen as they grow, and tree farms stabilize soil, protect water supplies, provide refuge for wildlife and employ thousands of workers.

After Christmas, Evergreen's Alliance for Sustainability + YOU (EAS+Y) arranges for FREE Christmas tree recycling at the Evergreen Lutheran Church on Hwy 73 (2 miles south of the stoplight in Evergreen) for two weeks after New Years. Lam Tree Service chips the trees and offers the mulch for FREE later that month. Trees may be dropped off between 9am-5pm on Jan. 3rd or Jan. 10th. Call 303-670-6385 with any questions.

New this year – curbside pickup!
