A search is underway to find the biggest tree in Michigan. The Michigan Big Tree Hunt is open to anyone and is free to enter. To participate, individuals must measure the circumference of a large tree, take photos, and submit their findings to a website.

The hunt is open now through August 2028. Trees can be found in various locations, including backyards, parks, and schoolyards. Prizes will be awarded for the biggest tree overall, as well as in separate categories for different age groups and counties.

Further details on the Michigan Big Tree Hunt, including how to submit entries, are available from the organizers.
