Our Services

 

Deep Roots, New Leaves

Since the 1950s, we’ve kept our hands deep in Montana dirt, learning the quiet language of bark and bud. 
We don’t grow the fragile or the fleeting.
We grow survivors: the ones tough enough for these mountains, 
hardy trees and peonies 
bred to thrive in Western Montana winds and weather. 
A sapling potted and ready to carry home,
or an old giant whose time has come,
our Master Arborists stand ready—for the life of your land. 

Precise pruning to shape fruit trees for heavy harvest,
ornamentals opened to catch the sun,
careful trimming, removal, risk assessment,
emergency response when storms strike hard.

Affordable by design.
Proven by time.
