Introduction
We strive to create a world where trees and humans live in harmony through the practices of arboriculture, restoration ecology and non-commercial forestry.
Treecology’s mission is to protect our forest canopy, both urban and rural, by caring for established trees and planting new ones. Vast forests of incredible height once covered much of the Earth with species that evolved in the environments they were living in. We have removed these wise and ancient forests and replaced them with monocultures of genetically similar individuals (Douglas fir plantations for example). Urban areas are filled with trees growing apart from the ecosystems in which they evolved, constricted by concrete and shaped, often harshly, to fit our parameters. Treecology’s approach to tree trimming and ecological restoration is to mimic natural processes, replace the diversity and missing components in the ecosystems, and guide rather than force trees to co-exist with us.
Treecology is dedicated to providing the best possible tree service for our tree care clients, whether it be tree and shrub pruning, tree preservation, consulting, tree removal, tree risk assessment, cabling and bracing, tree house building or other arboricultural services.
Save Our Elms
It has been decades since the City of Portland has had the budget to conduct regular sanitation pruning of the City’s elms population.
Save Our Elms has secured a grant from the City of Portland Bureau of Environmental Services to help homeowners in Ladd’s Addition with the cost of this badly needed maintenance.
Save Our Elms has negotiated special terms from Treecology, Inc to provide pruning services for this effort.
