Expert Tree Care Services in Boise, Eagle, and Meridian
The Benefits of Trees in Our Communities
Trees provide essential social, environmental, and economic benefits to the communities where they thrive. The greatest investment in any tree is the time it takes to grow and the dedicated attention to managing stressors that can affect their overall health. Boise, known as the "City of Trees," boasts a rich diversity of tree species and ages, creating a unique urban canopy that enhances our environment.
Protecting Our Urban Canopy
Unfortunately, our urban canopy is disappearing. Environmental stressors and diseases are the primary causes of tree decline and death. Research shows that veteran trees face greater challenges than younger trees when adapting to climate change. Factors such as senescence (the aging process) and accelerated deterioration due to global warming lead to the loss of veteran trees. Often, misdiagnosed diseases and misguided risk management by underqualified tree companies result in unnecessary tree removals.
Who Should You Trust for Tree Care?
When it comes to proper tree care, the industry-recognized credential is the International Society of Arboriculture’s Certified Arborist. However, even some certified arborists may adhere to outdated practices in their pruning and care standards. While the term "arborist" means "tree surgeon," we believe that being an arborist encompasses much more. Tree care is an evolving field, and at Holy Grove, we prioritize continuous education and skill development to provide holistic tree care services.
