Holiday Tree Recycling Success!

On Saturday, January 8th, The Friends of Jefferson Square Park and Bartlett Tree Experts combined efforts to transform local holiday trees into a well needed pile of mulch for the park.

The tree recycling service was offered with a suggested donation of $5.00 and proceeds going to the general fund for the Friends of Jefferson Square Park organization.

Altogether there were 87 trees recycled and after expenses, the Friends organization raised $231. And we also have a very nice pile of mulch with the evergreen scent of the holidays lingering on the corner of Third and Federal.

A big thank you to all who participated and help make this event a success.

Here are a few more images from that day:

FUNDRAISING UPDATE!
We have received $2,500 in donations since we hung these banners in the Park!! Thanks to your support we were able to schedule some long-overdue tree maintenance with our friends at Bartlett Tree Experts that will start after the holidays.
Next on the list will be replacing 2 broken benches and adding a message board to keep you up to date on park happenings!
Please consider a donation to help us on our path towards making Jefferson Square Park an even greater asset to our neighborhood. You can donate via PayPal (link on home page). If you aren’t able to donate, we can always use more hands at our monthly clean-ups on the second Saturday of each month (March-December).

Thank you and see you in the Park!
