Each year, the Delta Conservation District selects a different species to be judged. The tree must be located on a Delta County property that either you have permission to be on or that you hold ownership. The winning tree will be determined by trunk circumference measured at 4 1/2 feet above the ground level. If the tree has multiple trunks, and they separate below the 4 1/2 foot mark, select and measure the largest trunk only. If there should be a tie, the total tree height shall be the factor in determining the winner. The winning tree entries will be verified by the Delta Conservation District.
A $25.00 check and one ticket to the Annual Meeting will be awarded for the Biggest Tree in each category (see above). Monetary awards will be distributed at the District’s Annual Meeting on August 7, 2019.
Be sure to enter your “Biggest Tree” and win some cash at the same time. You must submit your nomination on the entry form below by July 19, 2019 at the Delta Conservation District, 6822 US Highway 2 41 M35, Gladstone, MI 49837 (Pioneer Trail Park).
