Guerrilla Christmas

The pop-up Christmas Tree is back is gone.

Last year, we told you about the pop-up tree that appeared outside of Ben & Jerry’s in December. If you’re not the reading type, here’s a brief refresher: Every year, Fast Eddit, an old-guard Grateful Dead hippie, puts up a tree, and community members donate ornaments, cards and other Christmas ephemera to make it extra festive.

This year, instead of being in front of Ben & Jerry’s, it went up at the opposite corner on the north side of Haight, in front of the t-shirt shop. It appeared on Monday morning as if by magic, and collected decorations for a few days.

We heard a rumor that building owner Norm Larson wanted the tree taken down, and was taking steps to have it removed by the city.

Before we even had a chance to reach out to him about it, we passed by again and the tree was gone. It seems to have come down sometime yesterday.

Did you see it? Do you think it’ll reappear?
