What is a Treasured Tree?
Big trees, unusual trees, trees with special memories, wildlife-friendly trees, trees with beautiful shapes, kid-friendly trees, anything that makes your tree a “treasure” to you can be nominated.
We're interested in reading great stories about trees in Peterborough too. Do you have a story about a tree that you've planted? Perhaps someone you know has a historical connection to a tree? Tell us about a significant tree in your life. Great stories will win a prize.
Many trees want to be photographed, but they can be hard to capture (not because they move too fast!). If you have a great photo of an individual tree, or grove of trees within the City of Peterborough, enter the photograph contest and your photography talent could win a prize.
Deadline for entries is July 1st, 2009
