Christmas Tree Fundraiser December 10 and 11 for Homeless Solutions

On Saturday, December 10 and Sunday December 11, Country Mile Gardens of Morristown will host their 9th Annual Christmas Tree Donation Weekend to benefit Homeless Solutions, Inc. For every cut tree over 5' they sell on these two days, Country Mile Gardens will make a $10 donation in support of Homeless Solutions' shelter programs. The funds raised this weekend help to brighten the holidays for the homeless and working poor in the Morris County area. The garden center has hosted this event for the past eight years, and they have donated over $10,000 to the Morristown non-profit.

Country Mile Gardens is a family owned and operated business which opened in 1978 and is located at 1108 Mt. Kemble Ave, Morristown. They are open from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. Please stop by for a lovely tree and to support Homeless Solutions!
