We get this question a lot. “What do you do with your wood chips?” “What do you do with your logs?” The first step is to offer these materials to the homeowner – it is your tree/hedge/bush after all, even if we have feed it through our chipper. Wood chips can be useful to mulchContinue reading “These chips don’t go with dip!”

Look out behind those bushes!
It would be helpful if burglars wore little black masks and striped shirts, but in real life, I don’t think they do. A well lit home, with nicely pruned trees is an excellent start.
It is the season for snuggling
As the snow has finally hit, after an uncertain month – ones thoughts turn to the important matters. “Do I have enough hot chocolate on hand, if I get storm stayed?” “How much turkey can I eat this month?” “Are cheese grilled sandwiches their own food group?

It is always nice to make a yard beautiful and safe! To improve the ease of maintaining your home!

Ahh the weather!
What a cold and dreary week! With gusty winds and drizzle, it is tough sledding up in the tree. My birthday was Monday and while I was enjoying the lovely weather, twice in life I couldn’t ride my birthday bike because of snow. And more times that I remember, May long gardening plans have hadContinue reading “Ahh the weather!”
Pruning for fruit
We recently had the chance to revisit the little orchard east of town, where we pruned last year. The Brandon Community Garden Network, who host weekly workshops, invited us back to talk techniques, about how we assess a tree, and safety. I couldn’t resist the blossoms!! If you have some trees that need a haircut,Continue reading “Pruning for fruit”

So between April 1st and July 31st – it is forbidden to prune elm trees (removal is still allowed)Continue reading “Blue Skies!! Right around the corner”
