Following this special moment, we are honored to auction the trees. Each one has been thoughtfully created by individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations.

We invite you to bid generously, you’re not just taking home something beautiful—you’re helping carry the important work of our nonprofit partners forward, representing their missions, their dedication, and the lives they touch in our community.
