The plaque reads:
"The Millennium Tree
"Redwoods are...ambassadors from another time."
-John Steinbeck
Travels with Charley (c. John Steinbeck 1962)
Every tree has a tale to tell, and the tree's rings tell us it's story. A California redwood grows by adding a new layer, or ring, of wood to its surface each year, so counting the rings reveals the tree's age. Written in the rings of this fallen tree are over 1,000 years of California history from 818 A.D., when it sprouted, to 1937, when it fell."
