Christmas Tree Auction – November 14

Ring in the holidays at the 2nd annual Christmas Tree Auction, hosted by Branson Mill Craft Village on Friday November 14 from 6-9 pm. Branson Mill Craft Village is known for its demonstrating craftsmen, many of whom have decorated one-of-a-kind trees to be auctioned off at this event. The event is free and will feature live entertainment, refreshments, door prize drawings and more! More than 15 trees will be auctioned off, with proceeds used to buy Christmas presents for deserving Boys & Girls Club members.

The event is being spearheaded by Dot Combs and Juanita Herrell, both of whom are artisans with booths at Branson Mill. Said Herrell, “We are thrilled to be able to provide Christmas presents for kids who might not otherwise get anything. Every child deserves to have a Merry Christmas.”

Also located at Branson Mill are Mountain Man Nut & Fruit Company, which will be open until 9 pm that evening, the Leather Trading Company, which will stay open until 8 pm, and Bandana’s BBQ.
