Podcast: The Birthing Tree

by Gene Hyde, Chattanooga, TN

An old friend and colleague of mine, Doug Still, who lives and works in the northeast has started a program called, “This Old Tree.” Doug narrates the stories of unique and important trees. In this episode, Doug tells the story of the Birthing Tree in McMinnville, Tennessee. The piece runs about 50 minutes and it is well worth your time to listen to the story unfold.

The Birthing Tree is a magnificent tree that is associated with a major part of our history, the westward expansion also known as Manifest Destiny. This tree is on a small parcel of land owned by the City of McMinnville. All visitors are welcome.
