The Amazing Tree Quest is a city-wide contest to find the city greatest trees. The Forest City has beautiful trees and stories to accompany them. Share them with your community. This year, we have eight categories, including 2 new ones.

We are thrilled to announce that Clintar is our event lead sponsor, enabling us to implement and promote the contest.

Thanks to the web genius of rtraction, who is donating their services to the Amazing Tree Quest, we have added new functionality to the website, including an interactive mapping feature.

Learn more about the Amazing Tree Quest in this new 5 minute video. Take a look at our 2009 winners.

All entries must be received at the ReForest London website by July 31, 2010. Here's how the contest works:

1. Find your favourite tree and figure out what species it is. If you're unsure, here is a tree identification website.
2. Take some photos of the tree. You can upload up to four photos.
3. Decide the best category for your tree.
4. For the Biggest category you'll need to make some measurements, so be sure to follow the measuring guidelines. measuring the circumference  |  measuring the height
5. Determine whether who owns the property where the tree is growing. If it is on private property, please obtain permission of the property owner before nominating the tree. (This will be important if the tree becomes a finalist.) Check out the City of London's map to determine property lines.
6. Nominate your tree online.
7. Tell your friends and family to vote for your tree and you may win the "People's Choice" award for the tree that gets the most online votes.
