Kinney Azalea Gardens

🌲 Your tree could become someone’s favorite holiday memory.

Help turn the trails at Kinney Azalea Gardens into a woodland wonderland! We’re inviting families, schools, artists, local businesses, clubs, and community groups to sponsor and decorate a tree for our 2026 Festival of Trees!

Imagine a tree filled with woodland creatures, tiny fairies, seashells, or dried flowers. Bring your creativity and share a little of what makes your organization special, all while supporting the care of our nonprofit garden.

We provide the tree, you bring the imagination! Sponsors receive a recognition plaque beside their display, plus recognition on our website and social media.

Decorations should be natural or nature-inspired. No lights or tinsel, please, to help protect our wildlife.

Gather your team, choose a theme, and create something visitors will remember.

🌲 Reserve your tree today:

Thank you to the Massachusetts Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society for inviting me to speak about Kinney Azalea Gardens today at the Natick Library.

Since 1945, the Society has encouraged the cultivation and understanding of rhododendrons, including azaleas—a mission that connects closely with our work at Kinney.

Connecting with this community of dedicated growers and plant enthusiasts gives us opportunities to exchange knowledge, celebrate our collections, and inspire continued appreciation for these remarkable plants.

It was a pleasure to share Kinney’s history and our vision for the gardens’ future. We look forward to growing this connection and welcoming Society members to Kinney Azalea Gardens! 🌸
