The benefits of trees are numerous: They provide shade, help remove CO2 from the atmosphere, offer a habitat for birds and other creatures, and are a good place for a Barrel of Monkeys to hang. Oftentimes, they become too bountiful for their own good, and are not only a hazard to themselves, but for everything around them. Tope’s Tree Service knows how to shape up all kinds of trees, big and small, from pruning to fertilizing, and also removing them all together, stump included. Owner Andrew Tope knows that money doesn’t grow on trees – he started off as a groundskeeper at age 17 earning $4 an hour, after all – so he and his team work hard to earn money that does come from trees… through service.
