Reviews, Tips and What's Happening from Kenny Jahng Around Livingston, Short Hills, Millburn, Summit, Madison, Chatham, East Hanover and West Orange NJ.
The Hartshorn Arboretum in Short Hills is gearing up for a fabulous 2009 season.
If you don't know of it alreadys, they have wonderful environmental education programs for children ages 2 1/2 through 12.
Jennifer Ward the author of "I Love Dirt" writes that "study after study indicates time outdoors in a natural setting is not simply a nice-to-have activity...it is a vital element for healthy childhood development."
Yes! I could not agree more! The Arboretum is buzzing with activities this Spring. In April, the Arboretum will celebrate National Environmental Education Week with both adult and family programs.

Yes, Livingston township will take them, and make mulch.
And it's all free!
After a White Christmas, you can have a Green one too!
From January 1 - 31, Christmas trees will be collected, Monday - Friday, from 8:00 am - 4:00 pm. Trees may be left at the curb for pick-up.
By recycling Christmas trees the Township is saving on the cost of garbage disposal as the municipality is charged by weight to remove bulk items. Additionally, through this program, the Township is adding another environmentally friendly initiative.
The DPW will chip the trees into mulch and make it available to residents for pick-up, at no cost, while supplies last. The mulch created from the trees can be used in flower beds and garden borders.
Call the DPW at 973-535-7931 to schedule a pick-up of mulch. Any extra mulch will be used around various township gardens.
