TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - Once Christmas is done, the clock starts ticking to get your dried and potentially dangerous Christmas tree out of your home. The TreeCycle Program provides a way for that tree to continue to be of good use - by being converted to compost.
The program runs from Dec. 26 through Jan. 17. In a change from last year, the city has discontinued the Merry Mulch program for residents. Instead, the ground up trees will be used at the city’s new compost facility.
