Some years, this event is just special. 2024 was one of them.
With the support of our brand partners Wana Brands, Gelato, and Mary Jones Soda, we raised $30,000 to purchase Christmas presents for over 300 local children. None of it happens without our volunteers, our Greenhouse staff, and our friends at the Walled Lake Civic Fund, Fire Department, and Police Department — and a special shoutout to Kelsey Stcharles, whose hard work brought this year’s event to life.
This year held an especially meaningful moment: we were honored to help the Huling family from Detroit, a family of ten who had tragically lost their home to a fire just two weeks earlier. We arranged a limo to bring them to pick up their gifts, followed by a warm lunch courtesy of Casey’s of Walled Lake. It was a day full of magic, joy, and true community spirit.
