About The Giving Tree-Hamden CT

Below the dam at Lake Whitney the Mill River slips south out of Hamden, and on a June morning the whole valley is holding water it will spend by August. The Giving Tree works with that arithmetic: sprinkler systems installed and maintained, spring start-ups, a mid-season check-up, and fall winterization before the first hard freeze can reach the lines. On the turf side it is fertilization, weed control and insect treatments combined into a program aimed at what the lawn is actually fighting, plus core aeration with seed to open compacted soil and thicken thin ground. Trees and shrubs get care of their own, and the pest work goes after the moles, grubs, fleas and ticks a Connecticut yard collects. The result is the plain one worth wanting — green that holds through the dry weeks, and a yard the household actually uses.
