Thanks to everyone who brought their Christmas tree to be recycled into chips for local parks and gardens. In all, we chipped around 450 trees and raised $1200 that will be divided up among the 6 South Philadelphia organizations that coordinated the event. The proceeds will go towards additional greening projects in the neighborhood.
