Maintaining, Healing and Trimming Historic Trees

Trees are amazing, and I have thought this since I was swinging in the branches of one when I was just a little girl. Now, that I am older, I see a lot more than just a recreation opportunity when I look at a tree – I see a boost to home values, a deterrent to soil erosion, an oxygen maker and a piece of history. Sadly, many people often overlook these characteristics of trees, or they simply do not know the best way to care for and protect trees.

I also plan to include posts on preservation, moving trees and anything else I can find. I hope you enjoy reading!
