Notable Trees of Greenwich
March 21 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free
Ever wonder what criteria determines a Notable Tree? Did you know Greenwich is home to 145 large, beautiful, historic Notable Trees? Established in 1985, the Notable Tree Project collects and distributes information about Connecticut’s largest and most historic trees both native and introduced. By educating our fellow citizens about the importance of our state’s natural heritage we work to preserve it.
Frank Kaputa’s presentation will introduce the Notable Trees Project, share its history, and explain what makes a tree notable in our state. Pictures and information about various notable trees will be included, with an emphasis on trees in Greenwich. A hands-on demonstration on how trees are measured will follow the presentation out on the Montgomery Pinetum Grounds if the weather permits. Please dress appropriately.
Frank Kaputa is the co-chair of Connecticut’s Notable Trees project. Frank has been involved with all aspects of the project since 2005. His responsibilities include measuring and photographing trees, public outreach, and the database and website administrator. Frank is a software engineer who lives in Glastonbury.
We are excited to partner with the Greenwich Botanical Center on this event.

Introducing Portland, Maine
For those who can’t stand the heat, for those who like charming coastal cities, for those who like the size of this little town, for those who love food, for those who love travel… may I introduce you to Portland, Maine. This city stands out as one of the best places to visit on the East Coast, blending the charisma of a classic seacoast town with the bustling energy of the state’s largest city. Clocking in with a population of just 68,313 residents, it seems hard to believe that Portland is Maine’s largest city.
