Summary: Kaiser outlines the history of Grinnell’s trees, starting from the introduction of elm seeds by the town’s settlers. Works like Henry Shoemaker Conard’s Our Trees and Ada Park’s Historic Trees of Grinnell are consulted in outlining this history, and Grinnell’s elms, bald cypresses, and plane trees are highlighted in particular. Prominent individual trees in Grinnell are also described in some detail.
