Home Woodland Forestry Arboriculture & Tree Experts Municipal Consulting GPS & GIS Mapping Tree Appraisal Trees & Construction Hazardous Trees Expert Testimony Professional Affiliations Arboriculture Trees are perceived differently as a function of their density, frequency and proximity to human-dominated environs. At one end of this spectrum stands of trees provide benefits more as a group or assemblage, than as individual specimens. Thus, trees in the former category are commonly the province of commodity or amenity forestry, while trees in the latter are usually in the professional realm of certified tree experts or certified arborists. Arboriculture encompasses planting, pruning, plant health care, maintenance and management of individual trees and - occasionally - woodland areas. By enhancing and preserving the value that trees add to the human frame of reference, professional arborists enable people and trees to peacefully coexist in an environment that provides benefits for the larger ecosystem. With the trend toward increased, diffuse development in areas formerly characterized by primary and secondary woodlands, protection and preservation of the value imparted by a vital tree-population has become - and will likely remain - a major concern of all who interact with the land.
