About Certified Arborists and Portland Tree Services A Certified Arborist is trained in the science of planting and tree care: certified by the International Society of Arboriculture. Arborists are providers of tree care and pruning, including shrubs and vines.
Certified Arborist tree service is your path to attractive trees and a potential safeguard against problems. Any Portland tree services can use the name arborist, but only people certified by the ISA are Certified Arborists: who must continue education with CEUs.
Transplanting: Tree and shrub transplanting is should be coordinated carefully. Transplanting trees requires more skill and experience than planting new trees, even in the mild climates like we have around Portland, Wilsonville, Beaverton or Sherwood. Some trees and shrubs can be moved any month, but others need a narrow seasonal gap.

On a part-time basis, Mario Vaden helped with a project to measure tall redwoods to our south: educational and rugged. The work involves assistance to find, measure and photograph some tallest trees in remote old growth forest just over the Oregon border. The photo to the right is at Prairie Creek.
