Default Re: So whadya get up to today.

We are pre-emptively removing ash trees on a large convent we have maintained the trees on for many years. We are removing trees with issues outside of the impending infestation (10 miles away) that have structural and health deficiencies and are in high level target areas. This improves safety while spreading out the budget for the Sisters. They will not be so taxed when infestation reaches and left vulnerable as far as safety is concerned.

We are working at a reduced rate and we are going to plant many trees for free as far as labor goes and just charge cost of trees and materials.

In addition this will reestablish a canopy for the future from now instead of later.

I love to shop for trees. I can make sure they get appropriate species and high quality specimens and they are planted properly. They will be protected from deer damage and mower damage with fencing.
