The owners of the renowned concert site were reluctant to lose a living symbol of the community forged on a farm in Bethel, New York, on Aug. 15-18, 1969. But operators of the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts feared that the more than 100-year-old tree, which is in a publicly accessible area, was in danger of falling down. They now have plans to honor its legacy.
“This tree, literally, is in almost every picture that someone took of the stage - looking down from the top of the hill, the tree's in the bottom corner. So it is like the thing that has stood the test of time,” Hitch said. “So to see that loss is both nostalgic and melancholy.”
