-Golden State Tree Service recently announced it has launched a new website, designed by Access Publishing. Owner Jesus Morales said, “We are excited about this opportunity to provide our customers with pictures and videos of our work.”

The new website showcases the team’s work with photographs and videos that demonstrate the quality of work. Working with trees that have overgrown roofs, are too close to a structure, requires precision that is best demonstrated, rather than explained. “When our customers see photos of projects similar to theirs, or can watch a video of our equipment in action, they understand the process,” said Morales.

The website also answers the most common questions people have about tree care. Those questions include questions about permit processes, mistletoe, the health benefits of pruning and trimming a tree, and much more.

The company has been serving Paso Robles, Atascadero, and nearby inland and coastal communities, San Luis Obispo County, King City, and Santa Maria since 2007. Morales also brought several years of experience in the horticulture industry to Golden State Tree Service.

“We work with property owners and caretakers who understand the importance of healthy trees, and the careful processes that are needed to remove and protect trees,” said Morales.

Golden State Tree Service is local, family-owned, licensed, and insured. The Paso Robles tree service team’s focus is on helping property owners, property managers, HOAs, and public spaces keep trees, shrubs, and defensible spaces within regulatory requirements.

“We help manage trees and shrubs for the right balance of shade and sunlight, and seasonal pruning,” reports Morales. Services focus on the long-term health of trees, shrubs, and land, helping keep properties attractive, safe, and clear of fire fuel.

Tree services are about working with property owners to keep trees and shrubbery healthy. Pruning and trimming are important for healthy trees. Removing diseased branches, or entire trees or shrubs, helps keep surrounding trees and shrubs healthy.

The team is familiar with the unique needs of properties on the Central Coast. Equipped with advanced tools and equipment, every project is undertaken with a positive solutions approach. Services include:

• 24/7 emergency service.
• Free estimates.
• Dead fallen tree removal.
• Live and diseased tree removal.
• Mistletoe removal.
• Stump grinding.
• Pruning, trimming, and shaping.
• Weed abatement.
• Defensible spaces.
• Assistance with the tree removal permit process in most cases.
• Need wood chips? Ask us!
• And more.

From the first contact with a customer to final clean-up, the Paso Robles tree service is committed to doing an exceptional job. That commitment provides quick, safe, and quality service at an affordable price.

“We leave a cleaned job site when we are done. If you want to keep the wood, we are happy to cut it and leave it to season for your personal use,” said Morales.

Access Publishing is a Paso Robles internet marketing company. Services include responsive website design and hosting, online marketing, SEO, graphic design services, print advertising, local news, local area magazines, and the San Luis Obispo County Visitors Guide.

-The leaves starting to fall from the trees is a sure sign that winter is approaching. It’s also a sign that it’s time to get the trees and shrubs pruned. Fall is when trees start dormancy. Deciduous trees signal this by dropping their leaves. Even evergreen trees and shrubs slow their growth in the fall, resting up for spring growth. Why do we prune trees in the fall? Jesus Morales, owner of Templeton’s Golden State Tree Service, answers that question.

Top reasons for pruning in the fall include:

• Fall pruning is especially beneficial for fruit and nut trees. After the last fruit is harvested, pruning creates an environment for strong crop yields the following year.
• Removing dead, dying, weak, or overreaching branches in the fall reduces the risk of branches breaking from storms and perhaps causing damage.
• Pruning the remains of broken branches helps keep the tree healthy. The jagged edges left after a branch falls leave the tree vulnerable to insect infestation or disease.
• Correct pruning allows more sunlight into the tree, promoting photosynthesis for energy and healthy growth. Pruning in the fall allows the tree to store more energy for spring growth.
• Removing crowded branches, which can be more vulnerable to rubbing together and damaging the tree, breaking, and stunting growth.
• Prevents long-term overgrowth that can crowd out other plants.
• Fall pruning is a healthy way to control tree shape and height and prevent interference with overhead wires.

Pruning helps keep trees healthy by improving airflow and sunlight, and also stimulating growth. Sunlight is a tree’s primary source of energy, aiding in the photosynthesis process that produces nutritional sugars, and in transpiration—the process of moving water through the tree—and in absorbing nutrients from the ground. Working with experts, like the Templeton Tree Service team, ensures every tree on the property gets the best attention.

Depending on the disease and how much of an individual tree is affected, pruning can potentially save it. Pruning also benefits drought-stressed and fire-damaged trees:

• It’s important to clean equipment after pruning a diseased tree to prevent transferring the disease to another tree. Some professionals recommend cleaning tools after each cut to prevent transferring diseased tissue to healthy tissue in the same tree.
• Prune drought-stressed trees by removing dead and dying branches, and continuing to monitor the tree for stress.
• Wait around three months after a fire before pruning a fire-damaged tree. Then assess the tree to determine which parts are alive. Start by pruning dead, broken, or hazardous limbs. Allow the tree to resprout before additional pruning.

While fall is the ideal time to prune, it’s not necessary to wait until then when a tree is damaged or diseased. Emergency pruning is appropriate at any time. The Templeton tree service crew responds 24/7 to emergencies as well. Waiting until fall can further stress a threatened tree that can potentially be saved.
