Holiday Tree in Gazebo to Honor Those Who Serve.
To show our support for the men and women who sacrifice everything for our safety and well-being.
The tree has been generously donated by Kurtz Christmas Tree Farm located at 22350 Quarry Road in Wellington. The Kurtz Christmas Tree Farm is celebrating their 51st year planting and selling Christmas trees. They will be open 10-7 daily starting the day after Thanksgiving. They sell a variety of Christmas trees, wreaths, and white pine roping for indoor and outdoor decorating. It is one of the few places in the area where you can choose and cut your own tree up to 12 feet tall.
Mr. Kurtz (pictured to the right) recently entered a White Pine Tree in the Ohio State Fair and won a blue ribbon and the 2018 Reserve Champion Honors. |

Main Street Wellington, Inc. decorates a live evergreen tree to honor the men and women who serve in the military, police, fire, or as EMT. The ornaments display names of Wellington area individuals who are currently serving, Veterans, or heroes who have passed. The tree will be displayed in the Wellington Gazebo in front of the historic Town Hall throughout the holiday season.
For 2019, the decorating will be incorporated into the Wellington Community Christmas series and held shortly after the tree lighting on Friday, November 29th at 6:30.
