Wellen Park to Relocate Grand Oak Tree Through Heritage Tree Program

The Giving Coast

Wellen Park will relocate a 96-inch diameter live oak tree, estimated to be 90-100 years old, more than 700 feet to from its current location to a new central location in Downtown Wellen Park. This tree relocation is part of Wellen Park’s Heritage Tree Program, nearly a $1-million effort to relocate 26 mature oak trees into Downtown Wellen to create an immediate sense of authenticity and scale. As a result, Wellen Park will preserve the substantial environmental benefit generated by these trees, as they remove thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide from the air each year while generating oxygen and minimizing rainwater runoff.
