The Big Tree Contest is going on NOW! May 15th – September 15th. We still have native trees that haven’t had a nomination yet! So get out and start looking for those big trees. Nomination form is provided below. Just send them in to the district office @ 1423 Broadway, Suite 2, Bangor, ME 04401.

The Penobscot County Soil & Water Conservation District is having it’s annual fall bulb sale fundraiser. We are offering high quality double peony tulips, crocus, allium, lilies, and much more. We will take orders up until October 3rd and the bulb pick up will be on October 7th. If you would like an order form, you can email amy.polyot@penobscotswcd.org or call 947-3555 Ext.3.

Do you personally have or know a neighbor that has the largest tree you have seen?   This year the Penobscot County Soil & Water Conservation District is partnering with the Maine Forest Service to hold our first annual Big Tree contest.

The big tree contest will be for native trees only.  The contest will run

This can become a great, fun summer project to do as a family or start a little competition among friends. Owners of champion trees receive a certificate, a “Trees of Maine” book, and will be recognized at the PCSWCD annual banquet. Nominators of winning trees will receive a “Penobscot County Biggest Tree” tee-shirt.

For nomination forms and a native tree list, please email amy.polyot@penobscotswcd.org
