Some Remarkable Trees Nominated

The Remarkable Trees of Virginia Project was a four-year effort to document the states' largest, oldest, most historic, beautiful and beloved trees. Citizens of all ages nominated over 1,000 trees to our project website, and over 100 were featured in the book, Remarkable Trees of Virginia.

The response to our book has been overwhelming! We are now in our third printing, and we were recently honored as a finalist in the Library of Virginia's Best Non-Fiction Category. Thank you so much for all of the positive comments and suggestions.

Please continue to nominate trees and visit the website to see the inspiring words and pictures submitted by our nominators.
