Grateful Trees & Bees

Our back yard ends in a lovely small forest, and the view is one of the things that we love about the house. A dead tree recently fell and has been leaning against a healthy tree, so we had to hire a service to remove the dead tree (these are VERY tall trees at around 100+ feet). My partner found Grateful Trees and Bees. This is an amazing business. One of their employees, Jake, is a former forestry service ranger and an arborist. In addition to being a lovely human, his knowledge of trees and their health is vast. He and two assistants arrived this morning and got the tree down with minimal effort in about 30 minutes. It was impressive to watch the whole process. They placed the remains in the forest to serve as detritus for the rest of the forest and its creatures. Their prices are VERY fair and also on a sliding scale based on the ability to pay, which is AMAZING for those who need it because having a tree removed can be extremely expensive. I love their commitment to the health and sustainability of the trees. I honestly cannot recommend them enough if you need any tree-related services. They also provide beekeeping services!

This went wonderfully. Although I haven't scheduled any work to be done as of yet, the service itself along with the knowledge of the business owner (Jacob Pressley) was invaluable. Jacob is an arborist, not just some guy with a chain saw. He knows which trees do and do not need attention.

"Jake is a college trained arborist with a passion for trees.  He can advise you on all your tree needs.  I learned alot. It was a pleasure to work with he & his men.  He builds a strong team spirit.
The area around my house feels more open & filled with light.  My lot is heavily wooded. Jake advised me how to preserve my trees, while giving them "air" &  a healthy future.
Thank you, Jake!
Jake was recommended to me by my organic lawn service.  I love nature.
