OneTree

OneTree was a project started in 1998 in England to tell the full story of a single tree and the extraordinary value it brought to society, its beauty and the versatility of its wood. The project has inspired a number of projects around the world.

The project was initiated by Garry Olson and Peter Toaig, who worked with 70 artists and makers.[1] The project ran for some three years until 2001 but a website Archived 25 December 2008 at the Wayback Machine about the project is still live.[2]

Other 'onetree' projects

The original onetree project has inspired a number of projects around the world:

  • Fifty artists were involved in a project of the same name in Tasmania that 'saved' a tree (of unknown species) from being chipped and increased its estimated value from $350 to $10,000.[3]
  • Another one tree project in Alaska following the life of one birch tree is currently underway.[4]
  • The most recent onetree project to be initiated is the OneOak Archived 24 October 2009 at the Wayback Machine project running in the UK, where a 160-year-old oak tree is being felled on the Blenheim Estate in Oxfordshire.
