Trim Your Trees to Protect from Winter Storms

Fall is an important time of the year for trimming. As our trees start to go dormant, it’s time to prune to promote future growth patterns and structure. As we work on the structure of the trees, we are trying to help the trees hold up better in the winds, snows, and other stresses that do cause breakage. We are working the crown to promote growth, not fight it, this allows the tree to grow and hold up better. Fruit trees such as the Apples, Crabapples, and Pears do require dormant season pruning. Call us and we can come out and advise you on what’s needed.
