Who we work for

Three very different jobs, one team

A garden oak, a four-hundred-tree leisure site and a void property garden need different answers. Pick the one that sounds like you.

Households

Trees in gardens, on drives and over boundaries. Advice you can act on, a clear price, and a site left tidier than we found it.

Environment

Almost nothing goes to waste

We recycle around 90% of everything our work produces.

Chippings go to allotment holders, riding stables and outdoor play schemes. What is left goes to carbon-neutral electricity generation. We supply large-scale residential wood burners, and we sell seasoned logwood for domestic fires and stoves.
