Ahh! Spring is officially in the air! Orders are flowing in, we're throwing on our mud boots, and the hustle and bustle of the season has arrived. We absolutely live for this time of year!
Early spring prep takes "all hands on deck" to get the spring season going. Our crew was busy working hard right alongside our family-partner nursery, Spring Grove Nursery. Here they are, digging trees fresh from the field and placing them in a burlap bag and wire basket.
The nursery takes time during March and April to dig trees from their field for us to plant for our customers. Would you look at the size of this Pacific Sunset® Maple!?
Also, during early spring prep, the nursery will also focus on planting its future crops. That's what these liners are, your future front yard trees! SGN Trees grow their homegrown trees for about 8-10 years to bring them to production. At that point, we can then deliver and plant them in homeowners' yards.
Inside the office, we connect with customers and iron out order details. Order readiness is a big deal. We know each tree that gets planted is a SERIOUSLY IMPORTANT investment for our customers, and we don't want to miss a single detail.
The magic is in the details. Here's Marlee in the office drawing up a design.
SAFETY FIRST! Here's Kyle and our office dog, Bailey stopping to smile for a picture. Right before we kick off tree planting our crew is busy prepping the iTrees.com truck. All points of inspection are verified before we take off for the season.
When you see this bad boy on your tree-planting day, you know things are about to get good!
We look forward to planting trees for you this year!
