On March 14, 2010 the Eastern Native Tree Society and Western Native Tree Society switched from discussion lists on Google Groups to a new discussion list in a Bulletin Board format at: http://www.ents-bbs.org/index.php  Posts made since the inception of the BBS on March 14, 2010 will be sorted and archived on the BBS. Click on the link to go to the equivalent section on the new BBS. This website will continue to serve as a front end for the ENTS and WNTS groups. It will continue to serve as a repository of older posts, and will serve as the host site for special projects and features that are not well suited for a BBS format. Please visit the BBS for the latest information and trip reports.

 

 

Field Trips


  • Iowa's Big Trees:  Iowa's Big Tree program is designed to locate the largest tree of various specimens in our state. The purpose is to give special recognition to big trees, focus attention on trees in general, and have to engage in some friendly competition. For information on how to nominate and measure trees for the program and for a list of Iowa's current champion big trees check out our Big Trees of Iowa pdf document.  http://www.iowadnr.com/forestry/bigtree.html 
  • Living Heritage Tree Museum http://www.stormlake.org/city/Pages/treemuseum.htm What is the Living Heritage Tree Museum? It is a Storm Lake City Park dedicated to planting documented seedlings and cuttings of trees associated with famous people or events.
