2023 Trees for Troops: A great big huge THANK YOU to all our 2023 Trees for Troops volunteers: you guys came out and braved a freezing cold morning on Monday, November 27th, 2023 to load 361 Christmas trees and 354 wreaths donated with love, that shipped to:
* Rock Island Arsenal (IL)
* Whiteman AFB (MO)
* JBSA Randolph (TX)

This year’s Christmas trees were donated by local Christmas tree farmers including The Old Grove Christmas Tree Farm of Caledonia, Circle B Tree Farm of Battle Creek, and Armintrout’s and Badger Evergreen of Allegan, along with the Christmas trees from Wahmhoff Farms, which included over 100 Christmas trees donated by civilians. We are grateful to our servicemen and women and their families who support them, and to those folks and farmers who donated Christmas trees and/or came out to help us load the FedEx trucks. Thank you and Merry Christmas!
