The Rockdale Wreaths Story: Handcrafted Balsam Magic from Our Maine Farm

In a world of mass-produced, artificial home décor, true craftsmanship can be hard to find. At Rockdale Wreaths, we believe the best things in life are real, natural, and made by hand. We are not a warehouse operation — we are a family-owned Maine farm, and wreath-making is part of our heritage.

Here is a glimpse into how we bring the magic of the Maine woods directly to your front door.

Rooted in Maine Tradition

Every Rockdale Wreath begins long before it reaches your porch. It starts in the crisp, clean air of the Maine wilderness. We are proud of our heritage and the care that goes into every product we create.

Our balsam boughs are sustainably harvested, ensuring the forests remain healthy and thriving for generations to come. This commitment to responsible harvesting is part of what makes our wreaths truly authentic.

The Art of the Handcrafted Wreath

We do not use assembly lines. Every wreath is painstakingly hand-wound by skilled craftsmen and women. Freshly clipped balsam boughs are woven tightly together to create a thick, double-sided, lush base.

Depending on the design, we incorporate natural elements such as:

  • Real pinecones
  • Reindeer moss
  • Crab apples

Our flagship best-seller, the Rockdale Deluxe, showcases this craftsmanship — bursting with texture, rich color, and that unforgettable fresh Maine pine fragrance.

Beyond the Front Door

While our front door wreaths are our signature product, our love for balsam greenery extends throughout the home. Our farm produces a full collection of fresh balsam décor, including:

  • Elegant Door Sprays
  • Festive Window Wreaths
  • Lush Table Centerpieces
  • Respectful Cemetery Hangers

Each product is handcrafted with the same care and attention to detail that defines the Rockdale name.

From Our Family to Yours

When you purchase a Rockdale Wreath, you are not just buying seasonal décor. You are supporting an authentic American small business rooted in tradition, sustainability, and craftsmanship.
