On November 23, The Massachusetts Horticultural Society will again host the annual Festival of Trees at Elm Bank. The event kicks off the holiday season in a special way: by giving families an opportunity to see spectacularly decorated holiday trees in a festive environment. Tree themes are intended to appeal to all ages. All trees are raffled off, with proceeds going to help maintain the gardens at Elm Bank.
We invite you to be a part of this special event. You may choose to donate a tree, give an item to our silent auction, sponsor or attend our preview party on November 19, or you can volunteer your time. Above all, we invite you and your family to come to see the display of trees.
Viewing Days: Wednesday, November 23 thru Saturday December 10 (open Thanksgiving Day)
Hours: weekends and the day after Thanksgiving: 10 a.m. – 8 p.m.
Other days: 3 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Train Rides: 11 a.m to 6 p.m. Saturdays and Sunday.
Note: On December 10th the Festival will close at 7 p.m.
General Admission: $8 for Adults, Children under 12 FREE!
Children age 14 or younger must be accompanied by an adult.
