Inscription.

In Colonial times patriots often gathered by designated trees to sow the seeds of revolution and freedom. Such trees came to symbolize American liberty. On February 22, 2019 this tree was dedicated as a living tribute to our founding fathers and as an inspiration for future generations who gather in its shade.
