Springfield Garden Club's Festival of Trees

In 2023, the Festival of Trees was replaced by our Holiday Pop Up market, selling our handmade wreaths, boxwood trees and other decorations. It was located at Young’s Plaza in the space that used to be Young’s Propane.

The Festival of Trees did not take place in 2021 due to COVID concerns. In its stead, the Garden Club created a successful Christmas Shop downtown.

For twenty-seven years Springfield Garden Club hosted an Annual Festival of Trees fundraiser as a traditional kick-off to the holiday season. Always on the Friday before Thanksgiving, it was held at the Great Hall, 100 River Street in Springfield, VT. Members choose to have the event early so their time is freed up to work on their own family holiday preparations. View/download (PDF) history of the FOT.
