Visit: North Hempstead Town Council Member Mariann Dalimonte and the Town Board are proud to once again host MulchFest, a
treecycling event at different parks across the Town. This event will transform non-artificial Christmas trees into mulch.
“Last year’s program was such a success and I’m thrilled to be hosting MulchFest again for the residents of North Hempstead,” said Council
Member Dalimonte. “This event will allow us to repurpose Christmas trees, ensuring that they have a renewed use after the holiday season. I
encourage residents to take advantage of this program to reduce waste and help our local environment in the process.”
From Thursday, December 26 through Tuesday, January 14 (daily from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.) residents can bring their tree to North Hempstead
Beach Park’s North Lot (175 West Shore Road, Port Washington) or Clinton G. Martin Park (1601 Marcus Avenue) to be upcycled and
mulched. All trees must have their decorations and ornaments removed. The mulch will be used to help the soil and plants at local Town
parks.
