The Department of Public Works is beginning its search for a Christmas tree for the annual holiday display in Central Square.

“We always look forward to this event,” said Lisa Clark, Deputy Director of Operations & Administration at the Department of Public Works. “Anyone interested in donating a tree should contact the DPW by October 10, 2024.”

According to Clark, SavATree Service donates the removal of the tree from the property.

The City is seeking a Balsam Fir or Blue Spruce in good condition. The tree must be located within city limits and should be approximately 25-40 feet tall. A “sole trunk” with one top (no split tops or trunks) is preferred.

“Location and ease of access will be considered. We try to avoid power lines or fencing that would need to be removed,” Clark added.

If you have a tree for consideration, please contact the DPW at (603) 332-4096.
