We’re honored to celebrate the life and legacy of Wilma Erlandson, who has recently passed away. 🤍🌳

As the daughter of Axel Erlandson, creator of the Circus Trees, Wilma played an important role in carrying on his vision. She visited the park several times to share stories, connect with guests, and inspire a deeper appreciation for these living works of art.

A memorial service will be held at Twin Lakes church on June 16th 2026 at 11:00am. She is buried at Oakwood Memorial Park.

Guests can continue her storytelling through her book, My Father "Talked to Trees," available in park. You can also learn more about Axel Erlandson and the Circus Trees by visiting our website.
