*The Kennebec Valley Garden Club has decorated Balsam Firs donated by the Granger Family Farm*
AUGUSTA - In preparation for the holidays, the Kennebec Valley Garden Club has decorated two of three Blaine House balsam fir trees donated by Granger Family Farm in China, Maine. The two trees will be displayed inside the Blaine House for the holidays. A third tree will be located in the First Family's private living quarters and will be decorated by the LePage family. According to First Lady Ann LePage, this year's annual theme is: A Children's Winter Wonderland.
"Paul and I truly appreciate the wonderful job that the Kennebec Valley Garden Club does each Christmas season to create a festive atmosphere at the Blaine House," said First Lady Ann LePage. "The generous gift of balsam fir trees from the Granger Family Farm will be adorned with snowmen, sleds and dolls in keeping with this year's "Children's Winter Wonderland" theme. Thanks to the Granger Family Farm and the Kennebec Valley Garden Club, the Blaine House is ready to celebrate the holidays and welcome in the New Year."
According to Clark Granger, the gift is his fourth. Clark has been growing Christmas trees since the 1950s and has planted over 200,000 trees in his lifetime.
