Head out to the Everstorf Forest! – Christmas tree blowing, wild game bratwurst, and fresh air
Once you’ve bought the other gifts and the stress of shopping is over, it’s the perfect time to take a moment to reflect in the woods before the holiday.
Even if your Christmas tree is already up at home, just head out to the woods for an hour or two…
This idea was born years ago as a complement to the Grevesmühlen Forest Service’s Christmas tree events—a trombone choir concert in the woods. A beautiful tradition worth keeping alive!
As is tradition, the Grevesmühlen Forestry Office will once again open its doors this year at
on December 23 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
at the Christmas tree plantation in Everstorf. However, only very large Nordmann firs are still available. But there are also plenty of green branches to decorate your home…or perhaps as a switch?
While “last minute” is usually associated with rushing at the very last moment, on the eve of “Christmas Eve,” the focus is on coziness and time for getting together. Families are especially invited. It’s time to breathe in the fresh forest air, let off some steam, and catch up!
The Grevesmühlen Ecumenical Trombone Choir will kick off this pre-holiday highlight around 10:30 a.m. with the traditional “Christmas Tree Trombone Concert.”
If you haven’t made it there yet, this is the best opportunity to join in the singing.
It’s not just regulars who come on the 23rd—they bring homemade cookies to share over mulled wine and apple punch.
For those who prefer savory fare, there are delicious grilled game sausages. That way, you can skip cooking at home, and after a long walk in the woods, the sofa beckons.
We look forward to welcoming all forest visitors, young and old—even those who already have their little tree but are coming for the music and the fresh forest air!
And if you still don’t have a tree by December 25, you should get a head start next year…
Directions to Everstorf:
From Grevesmühlen, take the B105 toward Wismar; 600 m past Neu Degtow, turn left into the forest until you reach the village of Everstorf. That’s where the fire will be burning and the trombones will sound at 10:30 a.m.!
Have a wonderful pre-Christmas season!
