Willow Spring Service Center

The Willow Spring Service Center is the office and work space for the District’s forestry and horticulture crews. The facility sits on the edge of Willow Spring Open Space, which spans 158 acres and includes a network of trails as well as opportunities for recreation and viewing wildlife. The site is home to the District’s annual Christmas tree recycling and free mulch program.
