EP Urban Forest News

We Are the Champions!

Find out if you have a Champion Tree in your backyard.

Please join neighborhood group EP Urban Forest on a short hike to the Newman Oak, a tree of cultural and historical significance to our town.

We’ll discuss what makes a tree ‘significant ‘and what it takes to nominate an EP Champion Tree to the Rhode Island Tree Council.

Meet us at the Turner Reservoir Loop Parking Lot at 400 Pleasant Street, Rumford Saturday, November 7, 1 pm (rain date: Sunday, Nov. 8, 1pm).

Or skip the hike and meet us at the Newman Oak, the tallest tree at the end of Bridgham Farm Road at 2:30pm.

RSVP by November 5 to epurbanforest@gmail.com
