Holiday Wreaths – Late Thanksgiving

Every four years we experience the dread late Thanksgiving scenario, giving us only a few days between Thanksgiving and the start of wreath week, which is always the first full week in December. Having an intervening week between Thanksgiving and wreath week gives our customers the chance to focus on holiday decor and get in those late orders, but 2019 will not allow for ordering at leisure. We ask that you focus on that wreath order form you received in the mail now, or head right on over to http://gardenclubbackbay.org/shop/ to choose your wreaths, poinsettias, and delivery options. We will continue pruning the Back Bay street trees next spring with the proceeds of the sale, trimming away the winter damage and promoting healthier growth.
