From the staff
After it's cut, a tree takes a year to grow back into shape. I cut thinking not just about how it looks this year, but about how it will grow next year. If there are branches that bother you, please tell me before we start.
Why this place supports social causes
Garden trees become rubbish once they're cut. But chip them small, and they can go back into the soil of the fields. I want to make this work a link between gardens and fields, with nearby farmers using the branches we cut. Passing our skills on to young gardeners matters to me just as much.
From the place
Because we're a garden tree service that doesn't throw cut branches away, but turns them into chips and returns them to local farmland.
What they care about
Cutting with next year's growth in mind
We don't cut hard all at once; we shape trees over several years so they don't weaken.
A walk round together after the work
We'll ask you to check the result by walking round the garden with us. Any branch that bothers you, we fix on the spot.
Branches become chips for the fields
We take cut branches away, turn them into chips, and nearby farmers put them to use.

How it works
Send a booking request (type of trees, how many, and roughly how tall) We come to see the garden and talk through what to cut and how much We give you the price in writing We set the work date After the work, we walk round the garden together to check the result
Please note
Please let us park one vehicle in front of or near your home. On the work day, please keep your windows closed and dry your laundry indoors. If we find a wasps' nest, we'll stop work and talk it over with you. The best time for pine candle pinching is April–May, and for old-needle thinning October–December. We recommend booking early. Cutting too hard weakens a tree, so we may also suggest shaping it over several years rather than cutting hard all at once.
