The Estepona Town Hall is asking residents to take their real Christmas trees to the municipal nursery rather than throw them out with the normal rubbish. From January 8, between 9am and 1pm, the trees can be taken to the nursery and for each one handed in a gift of a native aromatic plant will be given in return. For those who cannot get to the nursery their trees will be collected if they arrange it with the Town Hall Environment Department. Home temperatures mean that trees deteriorate quickly, so those that cannot be replanted will be recycled to make natural garden fertilizer.
