Trees and Christmas Wreaths from Maine

Perhaps one of the most wonderful reminders of the holiday season is the magnificent fragrance produced by fresh evergreen boughs. And there is hardly a better place to find that smell than in the Christmas trees and Christmas wreaths from Maine.

Expertly cultivated for as long as ten years, and finely pruned until harvest, Maine balsam fir trees are grown in an ideal northern New England climate...

...making them perfect for use as outdoor or indoor Christmas trees, and Maine Christmas wreaths, centerpieces, kissing balls, garland, Advent wreaths, and other ornamentation.

But don't worry if you can't get to Maine to buy your wreath.

Thanks to stores such as the LL Bean Store in Freeport, Maine, and many other Maine businesses, you can have Christmas Wreaths from Maine delivered directly to your doorstep.

Below is a partial list, a work in progress, of Maine retailers who provide Christmas wreaths, either online, by mail order, or by phone.

Some of these merchants will also ship their trees, as well as their Maine made holiday gifts. And if you have a large order, they are likely to sell their trees and Maine Christmas wreaths wholesale.

Please let me know if there is anyone you know (maybe it's you!) who should be on this list. But keep in mind, they must sell Christmas wreaths from Maine! Please note, I have not personally done business with many of these vendors, but found them online, as you found me!

If you are not "from away" and you're a "Mainer", you are in luck...
