Tree Care Experts Who Know Vernon

Vernon's 5,967-acre Wildlife Area—the largest state-managed property in Waukesha County—defines the community's character. The Fox River runs through the heart of the marsh, and the newly designated Fabulous Fox National Water Trail (2023) highlights the area's ecological significance. Tree care here requires understanding both the rural residential landscape and the sensitive natural areas that surround it.

Local Tree Concerns We Handle

Vernon Wildlife Area Buffer: Properties adjacent to the wildlife area often have mature oaks and other native species that benefit from the preserved corridor. We provide expert care that respects the ecological connection.

Fox River Corridor: Trees along the Fox River face flooding stress, bank erosion, and saturated soil conditions. We assess stability and can identify flood-damaged trees before they fail.

Oak Savanna Remnants: Vernon's original landscape included oak savanna—open-grown oaks with prairie understory. Some properties still have these character trees requiring specialized care different from forest-grown specimens.

Rural Property Clearing: As Vernon transitions from agricultural to residential use, we handle selective clearing that preserves valuable specimen trees while preparing sites for construction.
