For specific questions or concerns regarding your LEAF trees or shrubs, please fill out this form and a LEAF arborist will be able to provide feedback. If possible, upload photos of your trees or shrubs using the form, or email them (along with your name and address) to info[at]yourleaf.org. Photos will help our arborists determine the best course of action. 

 

Structural pruning is essential for most trees 3-5 years after planting, and is an investment that can result in long-term savings. We offer services for trees planted through our program at affordable rates. To learn more, click here.
