Recycle your Christmas Tree

December 26 - January 9 | 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
$5 suggested donation

Bring your tree to UBC Botanical Garden and we will chip it into mulch to use on our pathways. We also collect donations that directly support a local school garden project. This year donations will support students at Britannia Community Elementary located in the Grandview Woodland neighbourhood. Help SPEC (Society Promoting Environmental Conservation) continue to provide free and equitable access to vulnerable students as part of their gardening program which includes a focus on ecological literacy. Students are currently fundraising to renovate their gardening space to replace three very old and damaged garden beds, purchase compost and create a pollinator-friendly habitat.
