Decorating the Germany Tree
Our Christmas and Holiday Traditions Around The World exhibition is well underway. With more than 40 different cultural celebrations on display, we thought it would be a great time to hear about your holiday traditions.

Are there any holiday displays at Meijer Gardens that remind you of your own traditions? Did you learn anything about your heritage that you didn’t know before seeing our display? What is your favorite holiday story, tradition or memory?

If you’re willing to share your traditions and ideas, we’d love to have them! Select stories may be shared during our next holiday seasons!
