Ripon Tree Service

About Ripon Tree Service

Late summer in Ripon is orchard dust and long light, the almond rows running out to the horizon and the Stanislaus River holding its cool green line along the north edge of town. Ripon Tree Service works the yards and lanes in between — trimming shade trees back off rooflines and drives, pruning out the crossing limbs and dead growth a hot season leaves behind, and taking down the trees that have quit carrying their own weight. Removals come out in staged cuts on lots where there is no room to be casual, and nothing green is left standing in the grass afterward. When a valley wind comes through and lays a branch across a driveway, cleanup runs from the first cut to the last sweep. By winter, when tule fog settles in and the branches show plain, the shaping starts again — and the trees go into bloom looking like they were meant to.
