This year, proceeds from the wreath sales go to the Meals On Wheels Association of America (MOWAA), the oldest and largest national organization in the United States representing those programs that provide meals to people in need. Fresh Green Olive Branches This year, Lindsay Olives has created a wreath that offers a fresh, aromatic twist on the traditional olive branch wreath. Using fresh, green olive branches along with fragrant branches from bay and eucalyptus trees, the lush greenery is handwoven together to create a 20inch round wreath.
