Yes, the needles on your dead non-denominational holiday shrub are turning brown and falling all over your floor, getting stuck in your socks and making your life a living hell. You're just itching to kick that thing to the curb on garbage day, right?

Not so fast. It's estimated that as much as 20 percent of waste that goes into landfills is organic and compostable, so you definitely don't want to add to that by chucking your tree onto the pile. There are a bunch of TREECYCLING events happening this coming weekend, so hold onto that "ever"green a few more days.

From 10 a.m. till 4 p.m. on Sat., Jan. 9., at at NoLibs' Liberty Lands park (900 block of N. Third) and a Manayunk location TBD and from 10 a.m. till 4 p.m., Sun., Jan. 10,  at Mount Airy's Allens Lane Arts Center (601 Allens Lane) and Passyunk Square's Columbus Square (13th and Reed, not at Capitolo Garden as noted on the above flier).

Remove all decorations and please bring a $5 donation to cover wood chipper rentals.

Don’t dump that X-mas tree, Treecycle it
