Brownsville readies for Festival of the Trees

BROWNSVILLE — Brownsville’s annual Festival of the Trees will be held on Friday, December 6 and Saturday, December 7 in conjunction with the city’s Home for the Holidays event. 

Sponsored by the Brownsville Women’s Study Club, the 25 trees, beautifully decorated by volunteer artists will be found in locations across the downtown business district. The list of locations can be picked up at any business in town.

The beautiful 1881 Moyer House will host three of the trees and will be open for free visits those two days. The trees are all available for auction with this year’s proceeds going to support the Brownsville Library and the Sharing Hands Food Bank.

Bidding will take place both days ending at 4 p.m. on Saturday. 

Winners need to be able to pick up their trees immediately afterwards.
