TO DO: Find the Big Trees!

We will:

• Ask the property owner for permission to evaluate the tree.
• Measure the trunk (circumference), Height, and canopy (crown spread)
• Determine the species
• Calculate the age based on the growth factor
• Record the coordinates
• Photograph the tree and record distinguishing characteristics
• Report the age to the Mount Holly Historic Society for a historical time line.
• Consider any tree larger than 9″ inches for submission to the NC Champion Tree Database.
