Eco-Friendly Holiday Décor: The Sustainability of Real Balsam Wreaths

A real Maine balsam wreath doesn’t just look and smell wonderful — it’s also a sustainable choice for your holiday décor.

At Down On The Farm Maine Wreaths, our balsam is harvested responsibly from renewable Maine forests, where new growth replaces what’s gathered each season. Unlike artificial wreaths made from plastic and wire, real balsam is fully biodegradable and can be returned to the earth once the holidays are over.

Each wreath is handcrafted locally, minimizing waste and supporting Maine’s small farms and rural communities. Choosing a fresh, natural wreath means you’re celebrating the season in harmony with nature — the way Christmas in Maine has always been.

Decorate beautifully and responsibly this year with a handcrafted balsam wreath from Down On The Farm Maine Wreaths — where sustainability and holiday tradition go hand in hand.
