St. Joseph County issued the following announcement on Sept. 14.
St. Joseph County is pleased to announce the first of several tree and brush stations will be available to county residents, as a result of a collaborative effort between St. Joseph County's Sheriff's Office, St. Joseph County Parks & Recreation, and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. On Tuesday September 14, and Friday September 17, residents may bring unwanted tree branches and brush to Sand Land County Park in Nottawa from 9am - 4pm. Household waste and yard waste such as leaves or grass clippings will not be accepted. Branches and trees up to 16" in diameter will be accepted, and chips from this project will be made available to residents at no charge.
Trees and brush will only be accepted during the times the station is manned, and should be brought to the cement pad in the lower parking lot. Additional brush stations will be made available in the coming weeks and will be announced when times and location are finalized.
