We are on the move – Part 1 – of many parts….

3 May

Yes – we are at the final stages of moving. So I will be documenting the sequence of the event in many parts. Our large coverall has come down which we really miss, the place looks a little weird without it. But the important part – is digging the trees. The weather hasn’t been on our side either – wet – which makes muck. On the good side of things, it has been cool so we able to dig many trees while they are still dormant which is very important. We are in the fields digging rows upon rows of trees, section by section. The Cedars are dug in the front field as well as the Gingkos. We have dug Beech trees, Hydrangea Stds, Crabapples and Crimson King Maples – all in all over 1000 trees. Below are a few pictures of the what we are digging. it is hard to get around because of the mud – we got stuck a few times, and it was a gray day. But hey, I have got to start documenting this huge undertaking sometime.

I am getting lots of calls from people who have lost their trees. It is amazing to find out how many people are so attached to their trees. As a person in the industry, who loves trees, I find it heartwarming to hear this. Trees are important to us – not only environmentally but emotionally as well. Not to mention they add value to many properties, which is why people are looking for large trees on the property when purchasing new homes.
