Mill Creek Park Fellows Riverside Gardens Festival of Lights




There is a fabulous display of decorated Christmas trees at Mill Creek Park's Fellows Riverside Gardens until Jan. 3, filling the lower level with the most beautiful trees - and a ton of them!




 Okay, I've heard of the pickle in the Christmas tree. I think that's a German tradition. And my sister always puts a red velvet cardinal in a nest in her tree. 

But I've never heard of a fish!
But here it is.


 For as many times as we've been to Fellows Riverside Gardens, I never knew there was a lower level.  It's downstairs.

Also, stop in the gift shop. There're having a big sale on all holiday items.

And don't forget to visit the Cafe for a light snack.



The outside gardens are also lit up also. It was a little drizzly when we got there, so we didn't really explore the gardens, but they looked lovely from inside.

Phone number is 330.740.7116 for information 
on displays and times. If you are in the area, stop by. Mill Creek Park never disappoints.
