Shake and Bail!
Shake & bail at the tree lot
After you’ve selected your Christmas Tree, stop by the Shake and Bail area in front of the Christmas Barn. Hensler Nursery staff will carefully wrap your tree in twine for its journey home.
Bus Tour Kick Starts Christmas Fest
Hensler Nursery hosted a Cardinal bus tour of 58 local residents who were interested in receiving a private tour of the nursery on November 1st. John Hensler and John Scheetz provided the group with a first look at the 24-foot Douglas Fir tree headed to the State House Capitol building in December. Visitors were greeted by Mrs. Claus and taken on a tram tour which included stops at seedling and transplant growing areas, and a visit to the adjoining tree field to observe Christmas trees being shaken and bailed for wholesale shipment.
Visitors were also able to view the newly-decorated Christmas Barn, wreath decorating building, and visit with resident reindeer Angel and Rudy.
WKVI Radio in Knox, Indiana sponsored the tour.

A visit to the Wreath Decorating building is a must while you’re here at Chrismtas Fest. Located next door to the Christmas Barn, Hensler Nursery staff can custom decorate wreaths, kissing balls, baskets and swags.
