Details
- The collected trees will be mulched for use by the Kirkland Parks Department. This Christmas tree mulch is cleaner than other sources so is preferred over normal mulch for use in Kirkland Parks.
- If we have not picked up your tree by 12:00 PM on Sunday, please call us at 425-429-8669 and we will pick it up as soon as possible.
- No calls can be accepted after 1:00 PM on Sunday.

The mission of Scouting BSA is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Boy Scout Oath and Law.
