Champion Tree Walk

Assistant Grounds Manager Dan Daley will lead a tour of Blithewold’s Rhode Island Champion trees. Learn about the age of each tree and its historical significance, in addition to the growth habit, bark type, soil and drought tolerance, disease, and pest issues of each tree. Visitors will be given a list of current champions before the walk and are encouraged to ask questions. Each visitor will gain general knowledge of the champion trees at Blithewold and leave more inspired by each tree’s majestic beauty.
