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

How can you participate?

From December 26-Jan 12, bring your Christmas tree to one of the various Mulchfest sites near you and the Parks department will convert it into mulch to make NYC even greener. Just look for a chipping site near you on the NYC Parks website.

Chipping Weekend: Jan 10-Jan 11

Bring your tree to a chipping site on Chipping Weekend to take home a tree-mento! We'll chip your tree and give you your very own bag of mulch to use in your backyard or to make a winter bed for a street tree.

Want to volunteer?

Volunteer with NYC Parks Stewardship Team to help spread mulch from Mulchfest around our trees to insulate them from the cold weather. Find a site near you, and help give back to our trees! Register today
