This holiday season, Rockwood Sustainable Solutions invites Wilson County residents to give their live Christmas trees a second life through its annual Merry Mulching initiative. Now in its eighth year, the program offers a free, convenient way to recycle live trees, help protect the environment and give back to city beautification.
From December 25 through January 10, residents can drop off undecorated trees in the designated bin at 510 Hartman Drive in Lebanon—accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A separate bin will also be available for recycling Christmas lights.
“We’re proud to continue this partnership with Wilson County and Mayor Hutto,” said Lincoln Young, CEO of Rockwood Sustainable Solutions. “It’s a simple way for families to give back and keep sustainability growing.”
Once processed, the recycled trees become nutrient-rich mulch sold through Wilson Farmer’s Coop, supporting both local landscapes and the Wilson County FCA, which receives a donation for every tree recycled.
