NC Community Tree Webinar: Documentation and Conservation of Champion Big Trees in Urban Forests
Champion big trees growing in urban forests are a source of wonderment and community pride. Documenting these trees is a passion shared by people from many walks of life – both hobbyists and professionals. Discovering that a tree has reached an exceptionally large size for its species often affords the tree special attention and care from arborists and conservationists. In this presentation, we will discuss the documentation of champion big trees, common threats that they face in urban environments, and arboricultural best practices of big tree conservation.
