Copper Beech Tree, 1967In 1967, the Windsor Kiwanis Club donated this copper beech tree to the town of Windsor, and it was planted here on May 29, 1967. Copper beech trees (Fagus sylvatica), also commonly known as European beech trees, grow slowly but develop into sturdy, low-maintenance shade trees. Though foliage is deep purple during spring, it changes to a showy copper hue in autumn. The Windsor Kiwanis Club is an active civic organization and participates in the Shad Derby Festival.
