Donated trees must be free of ornaments and lights, and the recycling sites are not accepting wreaths, plants, garlands, baskets, or brush. According to Hamilton Wenham Green, anything but naked trees is much harder to chip, and could damage equipment.
The compost will be used for next spring's growing season.
