This activity is recommended for children ages 5 – 12.

Parents or guardians must stay with children for the duration of the activity

Walking will be moderate, please come dressed for the weather.

2024 Treasured Trees Nominations are Now Open through July 15th!

 

The Greenwich Tree Conservancy’s Treasured Trees Program highlights special trees on private properties to create respect for the many beautiful and unique trees to be found throughout our community.

 

Winners will be selected by our 2024 judges Sam Bridge of Sam Bridge Nursery and John Conte of Conte & Conte. Treasured Trees are scored on ornamental value, uniqueness, pedigree, size, age, and most of all, the personal story of the tree. Winning entries will be awarded a framed photograph of their tree at the Treasured Trees Celebration in the Fall and have a nameplate installed. They will be featured on the Greenwich Tree Conservancy’s roster of Treasured Trees.
