Christmas Tree Mulch to be Given Away

Jan 9th, 2013

The Christmas trees have been collected, Mobile Forest Products is grinding them into mulch and Keep Mobile Beautiful will give it away FREE on Saturday January 12.

Area gardeners can use the mulch in flowerbeds to help retain moisture, retard weed growth and return nutrients to the soil.

The free mulch will be distributed beginning at 8 a.m. on a first come, first served basis – until it is gone. City of Mobile Public Works crews will load trucks and trailers. There will be a self load area but you must bring a container and a shovel or pitch fork.

ALL LOADS MUST BE SECURELY TARPED before leaving the Fairground area.

WHO: Keep Mobile Beautiful
WHAT: Free mulch give-a-way
WHERE: Greater Gulf State Fairgrounds (Corner of Cody Road and Ziegler Boulevard)
WHEN: Saturday, January 12 8:00 a.m. until it is gone
