About M Flagg Tree Services

February on Turkey Hill starts blue and stays that way until the sun clears the ridge, and the whole rise above Whalom stands locked in place — every twig glazed, the white steeple in the village sharp as a nail. Ice weather is what M Flagg Tree Services keeps an ear tuned for: the crack of a bough letting go, the wires down on a back road, storm damage cleanup that begins before the road crews have finished their first pass. The rest of the calendar runs to plainer things — removals on the lots at the edge of the fields, pruning to keep a maple out of a house, trimming away crossing limbs that rub each other raw. Lunenburg is small enough that a job done right becomes a conversation at the store, and that is a fine kind of accountability. Shirley, Townsend and Ayer sit on the same route.
