Here’s the latest from Barns Green Christmas Tree Festival 🗞️

We so enjoyed organising Barns Green’s very first Christmas Tree festival last December, and we hope everyone who came did too. We loved the community spirit it generated!

We said right from the start that the money we raised would go back into the community, and we invited local groups and causes to apply for funds.

We are now able to share where the money has gone 😍

In addition to the prize winnings paid out after the event itself, we have now donated £3,000 to local organisations. 🥳

Find out more on page 15 of this month’s Big Mag.

Look out for our next Christmas Tree Festival in 2026!

Apologies for the delay in updating you all - we can’t believe it’s already been a week since we started setting up!

First and foremost, a HUGE thank you to everyone who attended the Tree Festival, visited the Grotto, enjoyed the live music, and joined in the festive fun with food, drinks, and plenty of cheer! A special shoutout to all the incredible volunteers, tree decorators, and contributors - your time and effort made this event possible. It’s truly amazing what a small community can achieve when we come together.

We’re thrilled to share that the event raised an incredible £5,500! 🎉

Of that, £600 has already been awarded in prizes (details below), and we’re now working through the event costs to determine how much we have to donate to local charities. We’ll be sharing our donation plans in January, once we’ve had time to rest and regroup.

Now, for the moment you’ve all been waiting for... the winning trees! 🎄

🏆 First Prize: Barns Green Village Store - awarded a £200 donation, to a charity of their choice. Congratulations!

✨ Runners-Up:
2nd Place: Barns Green Crochet Club (£100)
3rd Place: Barns Green Players (£100)

🎈 Children’s Tree Awards:
1st Place: Barns Green Brownies (£100)
2nd Place: Barns Green Playgroup (£100)

Thank you all again for your incredible support - it was truly a magical event. We wish you all a very Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄
