Right now, gloriously decorated Christmas trees are looking out over living rooms everywhere.
It's hard to imagine a day will come when their services will no longer be needed.
Alas, that day will come. And for residents in the Milton area, it should probably be by Jan. 7 at the latest.
That's because Milton Grows Green — in partnership with Casey Tree Experts, the Keep Georgia Beautiful Foundation and Boy Scout Troop 841 — is accepting and recycling trees at locations throughout the city starting the day after Christmas.
