06 Jan Mulchfest – Say Fir-Well To Your Holiday Tree At NYC Parks!

Drop your tree off from now until January 9, 2021

Wrap up your holiday season and say goodbye to your tree at Mulchfest. Join NYC Parks and the New York City Department of Sanitation in the NYC holiday tradition of recycling your Christmas tree!

Put on your boots and haul your tree to a Mulchfest location — we’ll chip your tree into wood chips that we’ll use to nourish trees and make NYC even greener.

More than 50,000 trees were recycled last year. Help us top this number!

Chipping Saturday
Saturday, Jan. 9
10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.

Bring your own bag so you can take home some mulch to use in your backyard or to make a winter bed for a street tree.

Know Before You Go
Please remember to remove all lights, ornaments, and netting before bringing the tree to a Mulchfest site. Bring your own bag if you wish to take some free mulch home. Mulch is available at select locations – click this link to see locations.

Please wear a face covering and practice social distancing by remaining at least 6 feet apart from others.
