“It is easier to land on Mars than it is to replace the amazing old trees that grace our neighbourhoods.”
– Kyle McLoughlin, Board certified master arborist
Trees, especially older trees anchor the natural ecosystem in ways that we are only beginning to understand. They provide invaluable aesthetic and human psychological benefits. And they link us to history.
Tree Trust’s core mission is to preserve elder trees through expert assessment and specialized arborist care. Every big tree does the work of at least 300 saplings. Tree Trust arborists have special training in the physiology and preservation of older trees.
