History
In 1980 my dad, Derek Lindsay, cut down his first tree with
an old McCulloch chain saw. It was love at first cut and he couldn't
get enough. Saturday mornings just before cartoons were on he would
drag my brother and I out of bed to come help him. I was six and my
brother was nine and to him that was old enough to carry a log. In those
days it was all about firewood. My dad would cut, remember it was love,
and my brother and I would split and throw and stack and throw and stack
again until we had big muscles, a tan, and lots of cash for gum and
baseball cards, at least those were the benefits he often bribed us
with in order to get us out of bed Saturday mornings.
We sold lots and lots of firewood until one day much later we realized
people were willing to pay us to take their trees down. After a while
we got so busy taking trees down for money that we gave up selling firewood.
We branched out into trimming and a little later cabling and bracing
potential hazard trees. I got my arborist certification in 2002, in
order to be better equipped to care for the trees we were in every day.
And so here we are in today, performing many aspects of tree care and
it's true, I still have enough left over for a pack of baseball cards.
