We have 2 trees near the barn that block sun to the vegetable garden and make it difficult to use the tractor to clean out the stalls so we decided to get rid of them. We found a guy here in Colton who said he could take care of them for us so this week it was time to drop them.
Just to be safe we hooked a safety line up to the tractor to make sure they fell in the right direction and didn’t take out the barn. Both trees had to fall in a very narrow 4 foot opening to avoid taking down our gates, fences, and the garden. The arborist did a great job and dropped both of them exactly where then needed to be! Now the hard work begins, cleaning up the limbs and cutting the tree in to rounds for firewood.
