Big Tree Hunt

REGISTER HERE

Here’s your chance to get in on the Michigan Big Tree Hunt while it lasts! According to ReLeaf Michigan, you could be recognized as the one to find the largest tree in your county or even the state! Helping a statewide effort to track living landmarks begins with learning to identify and measure trees. We’ll show you how, and then give you the opportunity to find some big trees and practice measuring with us. Join us for this fun workshop to get the skills you need to join the hunt.
