Recycling Chipped Tree Mulch

Collective Roots is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing high quality school gardens in underserved communities. Our goal is to recycle over 100 tons of green waste from tree service companies this year. We convert this material into mulch that prevents weeds from growing and builds a rich soil profile at our school garden sites.

We currently need high quality tree chips / mulch for spreading in our school gardens. If you have chips available, we have a site that has easy access for dumping the chips.

School Location:

East Palo Alto Charter School (EPACS)
1286 Runnymede Street
East Palo Alto, CA 94303

The site has easy easy access from the street. Loads of mulch can be dropped in minutes. 

Other school locations will be coming soon.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT CHIPPED TREE MULCH WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT & CONFIRMATION.

In order to schedule an appointment or confirm a delivery, please contact:  Wolfram Alderson.
