Did you know that Nova Scotia is the Balsam Fir Christmas Tree Capital of the World?! A merry title indeed, and as for how we earned the distinction – well that’s a merrier matter still. Legend has it we have Santa Claus himself to thank for dispatching a very special Elf named Twig along with a whole lot of holiday magic. Discover the story behind Nova Scotia’s incredible collection of tremendous trees by watching this sweet video…
You can follow Twig the ELF on Instagram, and all year long you can visit Twig’s sweet Chalet at Ruby’s Trail in New Ross – be sure to bring a letter for the magic Elf when you do. Then take a moment to follow the New Ross Christmas Festival on Facebook for all the details on Twig’s Holiday Happenings.
