Ridgefield Boy Scout Troop 116 will collect Christmas trees for recycling this Saturday, Jan. 4.
Families may reserve a pick-up online and have their tree at the end of their driveway by 6:30 a.m. Saturday morning.
Last year, more than 85 scouts, alumni and their families worked a full day to collect trees, which resulted in nine tons of mulch.
The troop is suggesting a $17 donation per tree. The funds collected help support the troop’s activities such as High Adventure and community service projects. The troop also donates a portion to Boy Scouts of America and to Ridgefield conservation projects.
