Nominate a Tree... yes, really...


NOMINATE A REMARKABLE TREE IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD!
The City of Saint Paul is rich in history, culture, and natural resources. With over 500,000 trees, the urban forest of Saint Paul consists of some trees that have endured since the city’s inception. Since then, these trees have continued to provide multiple environmental, physical, social, and economic benefits that have been instrumental in shaping our communities.

The Landmark Tree program was created to locate, document, and compile a record of
remarkable trees within the City of Saint Paul. Inducted trees will be recognized on the City’s forestry webpage containing interesting and unique facts about the tree. The Landmark Tree program encourages any person, organization, or agency to nominate a special tree on public or private property within Saint Paul city limits. Saint Paul’s Department of Parks and Recreation will accept nominations for the 2012 Landmark Tree Program through August 1st, 2012. Visit the Forestry website at http://www.stpaul.gov/index.aspx?nid=4205 for more information.
