America’s Living History

American Forests has researched and documented more than a dozen historic trees that overlooked the lives of famous men and women who shaped the future of the United States, or monumental events that are part of American history. Many of the trees still stand today, and some can be visited on public lands or in public parks.

Please take a virtual walk through our grove of Historic Trees.

PLEASE NOTE: Historic Trees are no longer available for individual sale. If you have purchased a Historic Tree during the last year and need a replacement, have questions about your tree, or to redeem a gift certificate, please contact historictrees@americanforests.org.
