Removed a tree for Thornton Burgess Society. Recently a 21" diameter branch broke off a massive white pine at the East Sandwich Game Farm. The remaining part of the 60' tree was leaning over the bathroom building used for school and TWBS field trips. Game Farm volunteers contacted the Forest Keepers Tree Care Company who agreed to take the threatening tree down before a forecast storm. A crew of three from Forest Keepers removed the tree, carefully cutting and lowering each section to the ground with no damage to the bathroom. They did an excellent job and they did this without charge. We admire their professional skills and we thank them for their community-minded generosity.…
100yr Old Maples are Now Happy and Healthy!. We had Forest Keepers come and examine several 100+ year old maples in the front of our farmhouse. We just had a storm and a neighbor's identical maple had broken and smashed into the road. We wanted to make sure this didn't happen to us. The Forest Keepers crew worked in cold temperatures, nimbly climbing these tall trees and pruning and shaping the branches. We were very impressed. And they were kind, on top of all that... Thank you, Forest Keepers!…
Saving the Rest Rooms at the Sandwich Game Farm. The T.W.Burgess Society administers the land of the former East Sandwich Game Farm as a nature study area and conservation education site . The restroom building was threatened by a massive white pine,damaged in a storm and leaning over the building. The volunteers contacted the Forest Keepers requesting that they remove the tree before the forecast Nor'easter on 1/12 so there would still be facilities when school groups visit the Game Farm. They cut and lowered each piece of the tree by rope starting from over 40' above the ground with no damage to the building We were all impressed with their professional skills and are grateful for their community-minded generosity. They did the work pro bono, sharing the Burgess Society concern for children and the environment. Thanks, Forest Keepers.…
