What do I have to say about Bear Creek Forest Management and Tree Service? If you need prompt, professional service at a reasonable price, Bradford, at Bear Creek is the person to call. When there was a windstorm and 4 tall pines fell across my drive, I called Bradford, and he was there to clear the way so I could get to work. When I was worried about 100 ft dying trees next to my home, he climbed them and lowered sections down individually without ever touching the house. When I had to replace a sky light because a large oak lost a limb, Bradford climbed the tree and removed hazardous limbs a trimmed the entire tree. In the forest adjacent to my house in Williams, Bradford removed tall beetle kill trees and thinned out closely spaced smaller trees to make the property safer and eliminate ladder fuels. He took the time to walk with me through the forest to mark which trees he would remove, explain why, and answer any questions that I had. He worked efficiently with specialized equipment and left a much more appealing and safe forest. And did so at a reasonable price. I’ve talked with quite a few tree services in the area and have hired a few in the past. None could come close to my satisfaction with Bear Creek Forest Management and Tree Service.Read moreRead less

Why prune your trees?
Tree pruning is a crucial aspect of forest restoration. Done properly, pruning improves the long-term health, structure and productivity of your trees while also enhancing your landscape’s aesthetic.
Why should certain trees be removed?
If you have dead, dying or trees that threaten infrastructure, strategic pruning or removal is often the best course of action. By removing hazard trees, you protect your family, property and surrounding trees.

What are some good things to know about tree pruning?
Understanding Tree Sail and End Weight Reduction
- “Tree Sail” refers to a dense tree canopy that has the potential to catch wind, leading to possible tree breakages.
- Pruning is applied to reduce the tree canopy by up to a third, minimizing wind resistance and the chance of damage.
- “End weight reduction” is another technique focused on heavy hardwoods like oaks and madrones, where horizontal growth places strain on branches and increases the risk of breakage.
- Selective pruning at the ends of these limbs reduces their overall weight, relieving stress and mitigating potential tree failure risk.
What about aesthetics and fruit production?
Aesthetics and Fruit Production
- Pruning enhances tree aesthetics and plays a critical role in fruit production.
- It helps strike a balance by allowing more sunlight to reach the fruit, boosting its sweetness.
- Over-pruning should be avoided as it could cause sunburn, especially for susceptible fruits like apples.
Different Seasons, Different Pruning
- Pruning requirements vary with the seasons. Winter pruning focuses on tree structure and strength, while summer pruning is about optimizing sun exposure.
- The rule of thumb for pruning is to limit it to no more than a third of the canopy at once to maintain the tree’s overall health.
The goal of pruning is to harness nature, elevate beauty, and ensure longevity to keep trees healthy and productive.
