What to Tackle in the Dormant Season
Jason PruettPresident and Operator

Young tree pruning is essential in the overall care and longevity of trees. It is an often overlooked process for both consciously planted and volunteer tree selections. It can be confusing to know what cuts to make. Yet, like a parent tenderly cares for a child, a tree needs ongoing care and guidance as it grows. Jason will guide you through the various pruning techniques for young and veteran trees alike. Pruning topics discussed will include crown cleaning, thinning, reductions, raising, subordinations, and retrenchments. Actual young tree pruning will be demonstrated in the presentation.
