By Geary County Fish & Game Association
Geary County Fish and Game Association is offering an opportunity to recycle your natural evergreen Christmas Tree after the Holiday is done. Simply remove all decorations and deposit the tree at the empty lot at the northeast corner of 14th and Jackson streets in Junction City. These trees will be collected by GCF&GA volunteers in late January and used for wildlife habitat or shredded for mulch. Please place your trees behind the sign by 20 January.
GCF&GA has been providing this service for many years and has prevented many tons of trees from going to the landfill. The trees have been used various ways, from fish habitat and attractors to structured brush piles to provide escape cover for rabbits and game birds. When weather conditions don’t allow them to be used otherwise they are shredded for use on trails and high activity areas at Sportsman’s Acres. Projects like this are a great way to get involved with the outdoors……for more info contact Larry George by phone or text at 785.223.1069 or email at [email protected].
