Joe and Bert took a roadtrip today. I wonder what they are bringing back home. 🤔

If you know us personally, you know we’ve got some pretty special Native American family members. And today, with November here, I thought you might find this pretty interesting.

Turkeys- whether you’ve got a flock of your own at home or you’re already planning your Thanksgiving dinner, these feathered critters and Native Americans share a pretty incredible history.

Long before the United States was even a thought, Native peoples in what is now Mexico were domesticating wild turkeys.

In fact, turkeys were among the few animals domesticated in the Americas before Europeans arrived. But here’s where that story gets a little fowl…

Despite thriving across North America for thousands of years, wild turkeys nearly disappeared from much of the United States by the early 1900s.

As settlers expanded across the country, the landscape changed dramatically. Forests were cleared, wildlife habitats disappeared, and Native American communities were forcibly displaced from lands their ancestors had cared for over generations.

While these histories are very different, they share an important connection to the changing American landscape. Here in Indiana, wild turkeys were completely wiped out by the early 1900s. But thankfully, they have made one impressive comeback!

Through conservation efforts, habitat restoration, regulated hunting, and wildlife reintroduction programs, wild turkeys have returned to forests across Indiana and much of the country. Today, wild turkeys can be found in every state except Alaska.

And while we’re talking history, let’s not forget that Native Americans were raising and caring for turkeys thousands of years before modern poultry farming existed. Their knowledge, agricultural practices, and relationship with the natural world are an important part of history.

So whether you’re watching a turkey strut through your backyard, raising a flock of your own, or preparing for Thanksgiving dinner, remember there’s a whole lot more history behind those feathers than you might have thought.

In a world full of princesses, and Arbor wanted to be a opossum.

Not a big market for opossum costumes. We did our best. 🤣

Is that big oak tree in your backyard worth thousands?

Customers often see a beautiful, mature oak or walnut tree in their yard and assume it must be worth a lot of money. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case.

Here are five common issues we see with yard trees, some of which affect timber value and others that impact the tree’s overall health.

1. Nails and Metal

As you can see in this tree, just two nails caused blue staining throughout a large portion of the trunk.

Would you want that in your hardwood floors? Neither would most buyers.

Metal can also destroy expensive sawmill blades, which is why many mills refuse yard trees suspected of containing nails or other metal. Fortunately, some of this wood can still be used for firewood!

2. Gravel & Rock

Piling gravel and rock around trees can slowly damage them. Excessive rock and soil compaction restrict the oxygen and water roots need to survive, eventually contributing to the tree’s decline.

3. Mulch

Mulch is great for trees, but piling it against the trunk year after year can cause problems!

Known as volcano mulching, this practice traps moisture against the bark and can encourage girdling roots. These roots grow around the trunk, eventually restricting the movement of water and nutrients.

4. Concrete Pads

A tree’s roots often extend the width of its canopy!

Installing concrete pads, patios, or driveways near mature trees can damage roots during construction and restrict water and oxygen afterward.

The worst part? It can take years (5-10) before the damage becomes noticeable.

5. Excessive Trimming

Trees need their leaves to produce energy through photosynthesis.

Removing too much of a tree’s canopy at once reduces its ability to produce that energy and can cause serious stress or even death.

As a general guideline, removing more than 1/3 of a mature tree’s living canopy at once can be to excessive.

So, what’s your tree actually worth?

Having a large oak or walnut in your yard doesn’t automatically mean it’s worth thousands of dollars, despite what Google might suggest.

But that doesn’t mean it isn’t valuable, either.

Species, condition, accessibility, and lumber quality all influence timber value.

And remember, a tree can be incredibly valuable to your property without having much commercial timber value. At the end of the day, it’s a case-by-case, tree-by-tree situation.

If you’ve had someone out to give you an estimate lately, there’s a pretty good chance you’ve already met Brady.

Brady has been part of our crew for years now (I’d love to tell you how long but at this point it feels like we’ve known him all our lives), and he’s become a pretty important part of the puzzle around here.

Not only does he handle most of our estimates, but he also helps keep things running smoothly when Joe and I can’t be everywhere at once. (We haven’t figured out how to clone Joe yet.)

He’s hardworking, down-to-earth, and thankfully has a pretty good sense of humor because we certainly don’t let him get away without being the butt of a joke every now and then.

Speaking of jokes, Brady is TALL. How tall? Well, I’m 5’2”, so I’m probably not the most reliable person to ask. Everyone looks tall from down here. That being said Arbor is completely convinced she could take him in a fight. She gets in trouble for snapping his suspenders and occasionally swinging the broom at him. 🥲 We’re not entirely sure where she gets that confidence (it’s definitely Joe), but thankfully Brady’s been a pretty good sport about it.

All jokes aside, one of the things we appreciate most about Brady is how often customers take the time to call us just to compliment him. That says a whole lot about the kind of person he is and the way he represents our businesses.

Brady isn’t just an employee. He’s also a friend who has also become family outside of work, and we’re grateful to have him in both parts of our lives. If you see Brady out and about, give him a wave!

Thanks for everything you do, Brady!

The paparazzi found him. Can you?

He is probably thinking about the Taco Truck right now.

Don’t go batty, but we’re starting a little October series about some misunderstood creatures that tend to get a bad rap, especially this time of year!

First up, BATS! 🦇

More specifically, our very own Indiana bat….

These little guys aren’t Dracula. They’re more like mosquito munching janitors working the night shift.

Believe it or not, Indiana bats love old trees with loose bark for their summer homes. So, not every dead tree in the forest is wasted space. Some are basically bat condos. 💁🏻‍♀️

Unfortunately, Indiana bats are an endangered species, making the protection of their natural habitats especially important.

So, while they might look a little spooky, your misunderstood neighbors are actually doing some pretty important work keeping insect populations in check.

Not all heroes dress up for Halloween. Some are just born with wings. 💪🏼🦇
