VALDOSTA — The Valdosta Tree Fest will hold its second annual event, sponsored by Valdosta Mall, on Saturday, Dec. 2.

The event will be held in the Mall and will feature many beautifully decorated Christmas trees in a silent auction to benefit local nonprofits that provide services to the Valdosta area. The public is invited to enjoy this amazing display of holiday trees, delicious holiday treats, and festive music for the season, all while making a difference in the community. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the participating nonprofits.

Come and see the many decorated trees on display, each one representing a different nonprofit organization. Bid on your favorite tree(s) in the silent auction. At the end of the day, if you are the winning bidder, you’re able to take home the tree and all its decorations. Your winning bid will be your donation to the nonprofit that decorated the tree. The trees are 3 or 4 feet high, to fit any room in your home or office.

If you are a nonprofit and would like to participate in this popular holiday event, there are still tree spaces available. Please contact Melissa Morse at melissa.kay.morse@gmail.com for more details. There is no cost to participate other than providing a decorated tree to be displayed.
