Fun facts:

  • These trees are from Nova Scotia. They are balsam firs and are absolutely beautiful! Our grower supports The Royal through this event every year.
  •  All proceeds support client- and family-centred care at The Royal, such as educational material for adult learning programs, recreation therapy activities and equipment, clothing, and other items for urgent needs.
  •  Everything about our sale is special, but best of all are the returning volunteers, inter-generational family purchasers and corporate community partners who make this sale possible! Without them, this event wouldn’t happen.
  •  The Royal’s Annual Christmas Tree Sale brings our community together in a unique and special way around the holidays. Just about all of our volunteer teams are returning teams each year including many of our staff at The Royal.
