Stewardship Program
Planning
Legacy-Trees will provide its customers with a vision of their property. What is, and what could be for existing and future trees on your property.
Diversity
We encourage all our clients to adopt our diversity strategies as we seek a balanced, stable urban forest. One tree, one property and one community at a time.
Proper Planting
Most urban trees have been planted too deep in the soil and are suffering from basal rot and girdling roots which leads to early death of the tree. Legacy-Trees guarantees a healthy, vigorous root system that is placed at the proper depth in the soil.
Stewardship
Through our stewardship program we provide juvenile pruning, soil resource management, and plant health care. Each of these is essential to the health of your tree.
With your enrollment our Legacy-Trees Dealer will make a minimum of three site visits with a qualified arborist within the first five years. The trained arborist will make 3-5 crucial pruning cuts which are essential in training your trees during their juvenile growth habit. These critical pruning cuts during the first five years will eventually create up to 20 feet of clear trunk depending on the species of your Legacy-Tree. This will eliminate the poor branch angles of this growth phase that turn into storm damage later in a tree’s life. Further stewardship and aftercare options may be available with your vendor. Ask your dealer our stewardship program which allows customers to maintain a 5-year warranty on their tree investment.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
AUTHORIZED DEALERS
To further ensure the long-term survival of each tree you are adding to your property, we invest in extensive training of our Dealers. This is done to ensure the proper planning, planting, and stewardship of your urban forest. Each property will present varying conditions such as: wet site versus dry site, sun versus shade, heavy soil versus light soil – all of which may impact the health of your tree. Assessing site conditions allows us to match trees that are native to those types of conditions and helps to ensure long term survival of a tree.
