Massachusetts Horticultural Society’s Festival of Trees is not only an important fundraiser, it is one of the most festive occasions at The Gardens at Elm Bank.

For those not familiar with the Festival of Trees, from November 29 – December 15 we display over 60 beautifully decorated trees, which are raffled off on December 15. During the festival, visitors may purchase tickets for a chance to win the tree(s) of their choice. It’s fun, and for many it has become a family tradition.

While the beautifully decorated trees are the centerpiece of the event, the Festival of Trees also includes garden lights, visits from Santa, horse-drawn wagon rides, the indoor Snow Village, model railroad display, and a fire pit with s’mores.

Following the tree raffle on December 15, Festival of Trees continues for two more weekends, December 20 – 22, and December 27 – 29, with the Snow Village, garden lights, and fire pit.

The Festival of Trees is a wonderful celebration of the holidays. For more information visit www.masshort.org
