The branch that exits the photo on the left was dead and hung down and scratched my cheek every time I went under here. Follow it in towards the center, to just before it joins the larger limb, and another branch comes off downward. I trimmed it just past that.
I want to start a tree service that sends out a crew to really talk to the property owner, and study the trees, and prepare a plan that details every cut in advance, and discusses why particular cuts are being proposed, and what the trees are supposed to look like, as they develop. I mentioned that an ecohouse garden is a bushy garden, and maintaining a bushy garden takes requires special methods. Bushy trees need to grow sideways, as much as or more than tall. Getting them to do that takes planning and ongoing care.
While we're doing the trees, we do other things, creating rooms in the garden, installing outdoor showers and laundry gardens with nice gravel floors, set into the ground with concrete retaining walls, and tin shed roofs on posts, and cellars for brewing beer and soda, for example. Also, advanced composting systems, and water re-use systems and aquaculture pools and channels that ultimately water the garden automatically.
We start by preparing a comprehensive outline of things to work on, the owner's dreams, and ours. Then, over months and years, we develop the customized plan for the home, building it incrementally, with a regular consultation program. We have many projects going at the same time, and conduct extremely regular all-staff reviews of all active projects. We can work with great efficiency because we have specialized resources to bring to bear on all the projects.
