West Virginia is looking for big trees!

Do you want to see some of the state’s biggest trees?  There is no better time than now, while the weather is nice and before the leaves start falling off this autumn.  To make your expedition to the largest trees in the state of West Virginia easier, the state department of forestry has made a list of big trees that grow on public areas.  You can find that list here.

Or, maybe you think you have a big tree that others need to check out. If so, you can even enter your own into the register here.  Just be ready to submit the measurements of the tree’s circumference, total height, crown spread, and the location with your nomination.  Then, someone from the department of forestry will come to verify the tree before it is submitted to the registry.

Forestry is a significant part of our agriculture industry and should be recognized by all.  What do you think – would you visit the big trees or do you have one to submit? Comment and let us know!
