Our American Legion Auxiliary Unit is planning to attend this event.
They’d like to see any veterans and caregivers connected with Post 281 at the festival.
Hopefully it’ll cool down and we can have a wonderful day!

Greetings Everyone,
It is that time of year again for the Auxiliary Tree Sale in Mt. Juliet. I have attached the order form for your convenience in ordering your trees. Click Here for your Order Form
Please note: There are a few changes to be mindful of. First of all, we had to schedule the pickup earlier than usual this year, so it is imperative that you get your order in quickly. The pickup date is Saturday, March 29, 2025. We are now taking orders thru March 19, 2025 with payment due by March 22, 2025. Please, no exceptions.
Secondly, we had to increase our cost this year to $30.00 per tree. However, the good news is if you pay by credit card or venmo, you will not be charged a fee. Of course, checks are also acceptable.
Third, the only refunds we will be issuing this year will be for trees ordered and paid for but not available from our supplier. We ask that you make sure when the trees are loaded into your vehicle that the count is correct. Our helpers will make every effort to load the correct number, but it is also your responsibility to verify the count. You will not be issued a refund if you get home and find your order was short.
All of that being said, we look forward to supplying you with some great shrubs and trees again this year and hope that you will once again support our Auxiliary fundraiser. As in the past, some of the funds will be used to send local 11th grade girls to Tennessee Volunteer Girls State (an Auxiliary program designed to empower young women to become great leaders and responsible citizens and to learn about our government and how laws are enacted). Remaining funds will be used to support our Veterans and to promote patriotism in our community in any way we can.
I will look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Kathy Leedy
Fund Raising Chairman
