Clement Oak
White oak tree in New Jersey, U.S.
About
The Clement Oak is a large old white oak tree in Deptford Township, New Jersey. It is believed to have sprouted between 1555 and 1615. Much of the tree was downed by a storm in 2020, but a lower limb survived the collapse of the rest of the tree and remains alive, with leaves, as of 2026.
The Clement Oak is located behind the Deptford Walmart, near Big Timber Creek, on land that once belonged to the Clement family. The original plans for construction of the Walmart called for the tree to be felled, but Walmart was persuaded to alter their plan so the tree could be spared.
