Council Member Dalimonte to Host MulchFest Event 

North Hempstead, NY – North Hempstead Town Council Member Mariann Dalimonte is proud to be hosting MulchFest, a treecycling event, at different parks across the Town. This event will transform non-artificial Christmas trees into mulch.

"I am so excited to be hosting MulchFest for the residents of North Hempstead,” said Council Member Dalimonte. “This event will allow us to repurpose Christmas trees ensuring they have a renewed purpose after the holiday season. This not only reduces waste but also helps our local environment.”

From Friday, December 29 through Monday, January 8 (daily from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.) residents can bring their tree to North Hempstead Beach Park North Lot (175 West Shore Road, Port Washington) or Michael J. Tully Park (1801 Evergreen 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.
