Big Old Tree Contest 2020: A Virtual Tribute
2020 was a whirlwind, but we still managed to recognize 57 winning specimen trees out of 91 nominations! Trees are judged by their size and within their species, measuring circumference, height, and crown spread. While we unfortunately can’t celebrate these amazing trees in person, we would like to virtually announce 2020’s winners. Thank you to everyone who took part in the contest, and helped us recognize and preserve some of Nashville’s most treasured natural resources.
Check out the video below to meet some of this year’s winning trees and their stories behind their nominations!
