MICHIGAN BIG TREE HUNT
The Michigan Big Tree Hunt is underway! The contest offers prizes for identifying the biggest trees in Michigan and it is open to participants of all ages. Winners of the biggest trees are determined by circumference.
Releaf Michigan created the Michigan Big Tree Hunt in 1993 to celebrate our State’s beauty and create a fun way to gather information about Michigan’s biggest trees. Participation is free.
The current Michigan Big Tree Hunt has over 200 entries from 62 of the 83 counties across the state. The last contest received over 650 entries from 79 of Michigan’s 83 counties, with over 100 certificates and prizes awarded.
The contest closes August 22, 2025. For more information, check out bigtreehunt.com or reach out to bigtreehunt@releafmichigan,org
