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
