Below is a look at 2025-2026 community events where residents may recycle their Christmas trees:
Philly Goat Project
Philly Goat Project will host its tree-cycle festival across three dates and two different sites. A $20 suggested donation for each tree supports free PGP programming all year.
A tree is not required to attend the festival, which will feature family-friendly activities, s’mores and hot cocoa and, yes, goats.
For the Awbury Arboretum events in Germantown, residents may opt for express curbside drop-off, a “G.O.A.T. Safari,” in which folks drive through the farm to drop off their trees, or “park and drag,” for those who can bring their tree in themselves.
For all tree-cycle events, remember to remove all ornaments and lights before donating.
