History of Willow Tree Nativity | 2000 - 2010
Willow Tree was introduced in January 2000 with one figurine, 15 angels, and the Nativity. The line has grown to encompass over 300 items since it's inception. Not all are still available, of course, since many have been retired. Willow Tree includes those sentiments that we most want to express. To our friends, to our family, to our children's teachers, to those near and dear, to those far and infrequent. Updated Sept 2010.
