WeNeedaVacation's History with Brewster for the Holidays
In 2009, The Talmadge Family made the decision to purchase and plant an 8 ft. Douglas Fir tree at Drummer Boy Park. It has since grown well over 20 ft. and is warmly referred to as "The Brewster Holiday Tree." The idea to purchase and plant the tree was born after Jeff Talmadge's father, nicknamed "Bubba," passed away. The family had enjoyed many summer band concerts with him at Drummer Boy Park, which led to them proposing to the Selectmen that a permanent tree be planted for Brewster for the Holidays in his memory. 14 years later, Bubba's legacy and the Brewster Holiday Tree stand tall and proud.
WeNeedaVacation.com and the Brewster Historical Society have been sponsoring this special event for a decade. It feels poignant that we're able to work arm in arm with the Historical Society on the event, as Bubba's ancestors were on the Mayflower and were some of the very people who settled in Brewster including William Brewster.
