I can't believe it, but the holiday season has officially come to a close.  I'm sure that many of you will be packing up the ornaments and taking down the Christmas tree this weekend, so I wanted to remind you to please RECYCLE your Christmas tree! 

In Metro Atlanta, they are making it easier than ever to recycle this year. 

About 50 Home Depot stores around Metro Atlanta will be available tomorrow (January 3rd) between 9:00 am and 4:00 pm for tree drop-off.  As part of the Keep Georgia Beautiful campaign, volunteers will be at many of the Home Depot stores giving away seedlings (sponsored by Keep Georgia Beautiful).
