This is the perfect examples of what you DONT do. These oaks were once a beautiful, full canopy, and now they will grow back bushier, with weak attachments with their new growth. Further, the tree is now very open to sunburn in new wounds and on surrounding wood; are compromised for disease at these vulnerable cuts; and now have injury along the stem of the tree where their climbing shoes spiked it. Additionally, any new growth or limbs that become diseased pose a risk to the home due to an inexperienced, and uneducated tree service.

Please for the love of trees, hire a real ISA Certified arborist. This is not money well spent.

We had quite the crowd to plant THIRTY trees this morning (poplar and London Plane). We had these planted within an hour and half! Super impressive. These kids will be able to enjoy their playground in a few years in the shade! Lovely day and an even better turn out of volunteers! Another win for trees!

We‘ll have light refreshments in the morning typically Dunkin coffee and donuts, observe an example planting and then start digging.
Wear work clothes, gloves and closed toe shoes. Bring water and snacks.
We end the day with a grill out at a local park
