Leaf River is celebrating the season with the Festival of Trees hosted by the Charles D. Bertolet Foundation.

Several trees are on display at the Bertolet Building.

There are a variety of trees:

The Leaf River Fire Department has a unique tree made of hoses and a tree skirt of old uniforms.

The Leaf River Garden Club has a tree divided into seasons.

The Leaf River Soaring Eagles 4-H Club designed a tree after their club. It is colored in green, gold and white to match the Ogle County 4-H blanket tree skirt.

The members decorated the tree Dec. 6 with lights, garland, clovers, eagle and gold ornaments, and topped it with a stuffed eagle. Voting can be done on your favorite tree up until Dec. 20.
