If you had the kind of Christmas tree that doesn’t get replanted after the holiday, here’s your chance to repair your karma! Green LA Girl has linked to a post about how to recycle your Christmas tree in the LA area. And when you bring in your old tree, you get a new one, FREE! (New one is a seedling, which, in a few years, will become a lovely pointy-style Christmas tree)
Dropoff locations are accepting trees today, tomorrow, and next weekend. Also, please remember: it is illegal to leave your tree at your curb, due to fire hazard (this means you, across the street neighbors!!)
We already have a couple tards down the block that have kicked their trees to the curb. Last year I went around the immediate streets loading up abandoned trees until I couldn’t strap down anymore in the bed of my truck:

I’ll be doing the same thing today or tomorrow.
Will, that is because you are a good citizen who rocks. Also, you do not like seeing fire hazards on your block, which is self-preservation as well.
