Recycle your Xmas tree this weekend
Friday, January 6, 2023 by Tai Moses
All of you scofflaws whose Christmas trees are still drooping forlornly in the living room or smushed into a corner of the porch will be happy to learn that the city is offering two more days of free tree recycling at Zilker Park this weekend. You may drop off your tree between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 7, or Sunday, Jan. 8. All live trees are accepted provided they have not been sprayed with fake snow (flocking). Please remove all tinsel and ornaments and don’t put the tree in a bag.
