Image
View of the front of the Palmer Presbyterian Church. Two people are standing near the open doors. Constructed in 1937, the building is also known at the Church of a Thousand Trees. It is a rustic log two-story structure, in the shape of a cross. A small bell tower with a dormer roof rises just above the main entrance. The interior is shaped from rustic log elements, with carved pews. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
