Big Tree Directory

Check out the national Big Tree directory of the American Forests program. You can search the register and also see guidelines for measuring a tree. Nominations for national champion must first come through the Louisiana Champion Tree program.

Nominate Champion Tree

To nominate a champion tree, fill out the form as much as possible with estimated measurements if you are not a forester. Email the form back to jzeringue@laforestry.com. The directory comes out in March of each year.

2021 listing

NOTE: Two trees have been reported deceased since the last publishing of the Louisiana Champion Tree list in Forests & People magazine. The Sassafras and Winged Elm trees in East Feliciana Parish.
