Recycling Christmas Trees: Transforming Tree Waste into Compost, Erosion Stabilizers, and Animal Feed

After the holiday season, Christmas trees can be recycled in various ways including composting, creating mulch, or serving as animal feed. Many local municipalities have designated collection points for tree disposal. The Ministry of Agriculture notes that one ton of Christmas tree can yield 300 to 400 kg of compost. Additionally, in coastal areas, branches from trees can help stabilize sand dunes. Some trees are also given to farms and zoos for feeding animals. It is illegal to abandon trees in public spaces, and violators can face fines.
