A small town wrestles with the responsibility of taking down America's oldest white oak tree, the 619-year old Great Oak of Basking Ridge, located in the center of a graveyard with headstones dating back to 1736. In response to the death of their oldest resident, locals host an art celebration, arborists plant a sapling grown from the Great Oak's acorn, and town leaders emphasize the value of history to unify a community growing in diversity.
