Where are the best places to purchase evergreen wreaths, roping, sprays etc. for home decorating during the Holiday season???

Are we talking "live greenery" or "permanent greenery". For "live", I'd try any florist/garden center, and for "permanent", I'd try any box store. If this is to be for your home, "live" is fine, but, if it is to be for places of assembly, I suggest you talk with your local Fire Department about what is allowed by Code.

Most towns have a garden club. Think local and support the garden clubs if possible. Proceeds usually go to a good charity, or to beautify your towns with flowers in public places, such as traffic islands.

Just a thought.

You can try Spider Web Gardens in Tuftonboro. They always have a nice display of items.

Cub Scouts will be selling wreaths on Friday, November 27 from 10 am to 4 pm at the Alton Circle Store for $20/each. The wreathes are 22", locally grown balsam fir and decorated on both sides with pinecones and a big red bow. The money will help to fund the Cub Scout's outings that are being planned.

Special thanks to the Alton Circle Store for their support and if you purchase one of these wreaths, I personally thank YOU for your support of scouting!

I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Peace.

That is a good price and the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts are a great organization. I will be there for several wreaths.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Where did this year go?
