Grinding of the Greens
at 2:04 pm on Thursday, 10 January 2008
Haven’t taken down your Christmas Tree yet? Or maybe you have, but it’s still sitting in the garage. Well, you have until tomorrow, January 11, to get it to a drop off site.
Now you ask, “What are you talking about?”

Keep the Midlands Beautiful is doing their annual Christmas Tree recycling program called Grinding of the Greens. Here’s how it works: You take your live (or once-living) Christmas Tree to one of the drop off sites, then you go back to one of the distribution sites to collect your Free Christmas Tree Mulch.
The only catch is that the mulch is given out on a first-come first-served basis this Saturday, January 12. So, you might want to get there early.
The local drop off sites are Seven Oaks Park and Crooked Creek Park. The local mulch distribution site is Seven Oaks Park.
