Why we're called Linden Tree

As the owners and founders of Linden Tree, Linda and Dennis Ronberg decided to combine our first names to make the name “Linden Tree.”

Then we researched the name Linden Tree and discovered that in German folklore, elves and fairies liked to dance under Linden Trees. Since choosing this name we have heard from our customers that in some Eastern European countries it is the tradition to plant a Linden Tree to celebrate the birth of a child.

As we are committed to celebrating children and bringing them the best in books and music, puppets, toys and games, Linden Tree seems the perfect name for our store.
