The Noble Trees of Spartanburg Contest

The annual Noble Trees of Spartanburg Contest is a way to educate school children and Spartanburg residents and visitors about the importance of Noble Trees to our community.  Additionally, this contest will be a means to locate some of Spartanburg County's largest and most notable specimen trees.

This competition will assist us as we work to create a interactive map of the Tree Canopy of Spartanburg County and show open areas where Noble Trees need to be planted so that future generations can enjoy these amazing trees.
