Managed by the Forestry division of Recreation and Parks, Camp Small is the sorting and recycling facility for the 9,000 tons of tree debris that is collected annually from city-owned street and park trees.
The urban wood recycling program utilizes onsite processing equipment such as sawmills and drying kilns to transform the materials into lumber, firewood, furniture, and other valuable wood products.
Camp Small products are available to everyone. We offer additional support and discounted pricing to public project within Baltimore City.

Our facility is open by appointment only:
🕘 Monday – Friday | 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM
