Heartwood Tree Care was founded in 1979 by Patrick George, who believes that trees are vital to our environment and community. His journey began with a single ancient tree he climbed as a teenager near his mother's home on St. John's Lane, which still proudly stands today, bridging the two ends of the street. Patrick has always held a deep appreciation for each tree he has encountered. What started with a truck, a dog named Chainsaw, and a small group of passionate tree climbers has blossomed over the past four decades into an award-winning, nationally recognized industry leader.
"Driven by a fascination with the mystery of trees, our team is devoted to understanding the science behind them."
Now retired, Patrick has passed the torch to his daughter, Julia, who proudly carries on the family business. Under her leadership, Heartwood remains committed to the values and vision that Patrick established. This passion fuels our mission to nurture trees and enhance the landscapes of our community, ensuring they thrive for generations to come.
Our team provides comprehensive, science-backed tree care solutions designed to promote longevity, structural integrity, and resilience. Whether you're caring for mature oaks, ornamental trees, or newly planted saplings, we're here to help you make informed decisions that allow your trees to reach their full potential.
