I was a landscaper foreman for 5 years but became discouraged at the quality of work I was seeing out of the company. I decided if I kept my business small and focused on quality over quantity our customers would see the difference, and this has proven to be true.
Ian Ferrel has been working as a landscaper and apprentice to a master arborist for 7 years before starting his own business. Ian took his arborist certification test in September and received a nearly perfect score. His passion is climbing and his main concern is safety for himself, anyone he works with and for the property. He started his business with the best gear to do the job right. We are still in our fledgling days, but we are committed to providing for our customers a tree and landscape service they can rely on for honesty, safety and a job well thought out and well done.
