Welcome to the Wreath's for Veteran's Howland Maine / Wreaths Across America Page. 

On December 14, 2024 (Wreath Placement Immediately Following Ceremony),  Wreath's for Veteran's will be helping Howland, West Enfield/St Matthews , Enfield, Seboeis Plantation, Lowell, Edinburg Cemeteries & Hillcrest in Lagrange to Remember and Honor our veterans by laying Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes.

In 2017 & 2018,  Dean Loupin and Tami Colbath were chosen to drive an 18 wheeler full of precious wreaths to Arlington National Cemetery and be part of Wreath's Across America in one of the most patriotic efforts ever!  December 2019 the program came to Howland & West Enfield with complete coverage of all veteran's final resting place was achieved with the generosity of our small communities and local businesses.  2020 we added another spot in Edinburg, and a few smaller ones in Howland. In 2021 Seboeis Plantation, Tannery Cemetery in Lowell and Village Cemetery in Enfield has joined our efforts.  Our goal for the future is to include all district cemeteries that would like to participate.  In 2022 Hillcrest in Lagrange has been added and this brings our total to 600 veterans wreaths for 2023.

Thank you so much for supporting the Wreath's for Veteran's and Wreaths Across America!
