Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, please come donate your branches…
We hope everyone had a happy new year and is ready to kick off a great 2012. In the spirit of being more environmentally-conscious in the new year, and because we know you're probably about ready to take down the Christmas decorations, including the tree... we wanted to let you know about a great annual event. Please come recycle your Christmas tree this Saturday, January 7, at The Home Depot at 650 Ponce de Leon Ave. during their "Bring one for the Chipper" event. Your festive tree will be converted to mulch that will go on to beautify local playgrounds and residential yards. You can even obtain the mulch for your own project free of charge! Get more info here.
Since 1991, this program has collected more than 5 million trees that have gone on to make Atlanta more beautiful - now that's what I call the spirit of giving!
When you're done, treat yourself to a decadent caramel macchiato or other hot beverage at Inman Perk in the Highland Walk neighborhood to polish off the holiday season.
