New Ross Wreath Making Experience

Step into New Ross’ farming and forestry traditions with a hands-on wreath-making experience at Bar M Ranch. Guided by a sixth-generation farmer, you’ll tour private woodland, hear local stories and cultural insights, and learn about the area’s history as the “Christmas Tree Capital of the World.” After harvesting fresh Nova Scotia balsam fir, you’ll craft your own wreath to welcome the holiday season, then head to nearby Hearth Room Café for a hearty lunch and fresh-baked treats.
