began with a single wreath — but it has grown into something far greater: a circle of generosity that belongs to all of us.

Neighbors donate florals, ribbons, and other wreathing supplies. Volunteers — myself included — gather to create wreaths, each one made with care, each one given freely. What begins as a box of donated wreathing supplies becomes a gift that brings beauty and joy to a doorway, a home, or an organization.

Sometimes it’s one wreath for one nominated neighbor. Other times, through wreathing events, many wreaths are created at once and delivered together, multiplying the joy we can share. And little by little, those gifts travel beyond our own streets, reaching surrounding towns and organizations throughout Fairfield County.

That is why Wreathing for Community is bigger than any one person. It belongs to everyone who donates, volunteers, or nominates a neighbor. Every bow tied, every wreath hung, every act of kindness adds to the story.

And there is always room for more hands, more hearts, and more neighbors to join in. When you give, when you help, when you nominate, you don’t just support Wreathing for Community — you become Wreathing for Community. Together, we are not just making wreaths. We are weaving joy, connection, and community itself.
