The history of the birch wreath has gone back as far as there
were birch trees. Wreaths have always been placed in the home for
celebration, and to accent a story in history.
The
birch tree is harvested and the tips and limbs are all removed and used for
our products. The bark is then removed and the log goes to our mill
and is cut to make wooden products for our customers.
Any part of the tree
that cannot be used for product is used to heat the shop, and even the sawdust is
used for mulching our gardens where our pumpkins are grown. The Stump from
that tree will then sprout shoots, and continue to re-grow.
The birch wreath has beauty for every
season and can be charmed with the owner's own decor of silk flowers,
ribbons, leaves or more. Even with that in mind the Birch wreath is
stunning all by itself.
Original birch wreaths were made
from birch in the spring, because of the beauty of what is called catkins,
which is the hanging bud or cone that shows only in the spring or late
fall.
Early settlers would pick the tips of the birch and make
wreaths to represent good luck and fortune in the following season, the
coming of a new day.
People all over the world enjoy the
splendor of a real traditional wreath that can be shared for all seasons!
Let our wreaths bring you
happiness and good fortune!
