Urban
Forestry
Canada has the most beautiful forests in the world. Our cities, however, are lacking in green usable spaces, to put it gently. We bridge that gap by preserving and integrating mature tree canopies into urban landscapes.
Arboricultural Services
Tree Health & Disease Assessment
Professional diagnosis of tree health issues, pest infestations, and disease management using ISA protocols and arboricultural best practices.
Precision Pruning & Canopy Management
Structural pruning, crown reduction, and canopy thinning to promote tree health, manage risk, and enhance form while maintaining natural growth patterns.
Specimen Tree Planting & Sourcing
Selection and installation of high-quality native and adapted species, with attention to mature size, site conditions, and long-term canopy goals.
Root Zone Protection & Soil Care
Critical root zone delineation during construction, soil amendment, and protection measures to ensure tree survival and long-term vigor.
A living canopy
Urban tree canopy is one of the most powerful tools we have against heat, flooding, and biodiversity loss. We plant with permanence in mind — selecting native species suited to local soils and climate that will provide shade, habitat, and cooling within a decade.
Every design specifies the right tree for the right place: root zones, fall habit, wildlife value, and mature scale all considered from day one. We don't install fast-growing fillers. We plant with generational intent.
Planting for permanence
Climate Adaptation
We select species proven to thrive in local conditions, considering hardiness zones, soil types, and projected climate shifts over the tree's lifespan.
Ecological Function
Native and regionally adapted trees support local wildlife, improve air quality, and contribute to urban biodiversity corridors.
Structural Integrity
Proper planting depth, root ball preparation, and establishment care ensure trees develop strong structure and resist storm damage.
Generational Thinking
We plant trees that will outlive us, creating shade and habitat for future generations while increasing property value and neighborhood character.
