HEBRON — This summer, an American chestnut tree in Hebron has left many in wonder, thinking about the tree’s significance.
Located on Ann Siekman and Roger Crockett’s property on Back Street, the tree, which has been in full glorious bloom, has often turned heads not only because it is “very beautiful,” Siekman said, but because of its size. It’s considered to be the biggest in Maine and one of the biggest in the country.
