Hi People's Patriot Followers!

We've been hard at work these past few months, and we're excited to share our progress. Last year, we had the honor of organizing the wreath-laying ceremony at Fort Snelling in Minnesota. It was a new and somewhat daunting experience, but it turned out to be an amazing day with many wreaths placed!

The People's Patriot Project is part of the group sponsorship program. By ordering through our sponsorship page, Wreaths Across America will give us a $5 kickback for each wreath. This year, we aim to significantly increase the number of wreaths donated, and we need your help to make it happen. We're asking everyone to order their wreaths now so that we're well-prepared for December.

Together, we can fill the cemetery with respect and honor. Let's spread the word, share this initiative, and show everyone how easy it is to make a difference.

Thank you for your support!

Our Story

Morrill Worcester, owner of Worcester Wreath Company of Harrington, Maine, was a 12 year old paper boy for the Bangor Daily News when he won a trip to Washington D.C. His first trip to our nation’s capital was one he would never forget, and Arlington National Cemetery made an especially indelible impression on him. This experience followed him throughout his life and successful career, reminding him that his good fortune was due, in large part, to the values of this nation and the veterans who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

In 1992, Worcester Wreath found themselves with a surplus of wreaths nearing the end of the holiday season. Remembering his boyhood experience at Arlington, Worcester realized he had an opportunity to honor our country’s veterans. With the aid of Maine Senator Olympia Snowe, arrangements were made for the wreaths to be placed at Arlington in one of the older sections of the cemetery that had been receiving fewer visitors with each passing year.

The annual tribute went on quietly for several years, until 2005, when a photo of the stones at Arlington, adorned with wreaths and covered in snow, circulated around the internet. Suddenly, the project received national attention. Thousands of requests poured in from all over the country from people wanting to help with Arlington, to emulate the Arlington project at their National and State cemeteries, or to simply share their stories and thank Morrill Worcester for honoring our nation’s heroes.
