The main event will be held on so-called “Chipping Weekend” on Jan 6 and Jan 7 where you can chip your tree and be handed a bag of mulch to use in your backyard or make a winter bed for a tree on your block. Trees must be free of any lights and ornaments. People can also volunteer to help spread mulch across the city.
