The Hartsburg~Emden FFA will be putting up the annual Christmas trees on December 9th at the Whistle Stop Park in Emden. The town loves having the FFA do this and the kids enjoy doing it as well. The trees are happily donated by the great people of the Hartsburg and Emden communities. I personally like putting up the trees because it's usually hard for me to get involved with the FFA during the summer, fall, and spring due to working a lot of the time so during the winter months I get to be involved! Then we have some kids in the FFA that have a hard time finding a ride to events and since this event is in town just about everyone can be a part of it. The best part of putting up the trees is being able to drive by the park and say, “I helped put those up.”
