How to best care for your trees, shrubs, and other greenery. Learn from our tree care specialists serving the Columbia Valley including Invermere and Golden, BC.
We are deep into the cold days of winter and looking around the Columbia Valley one can’t help but notice trees which are usually bare of leaves at this time of year are still full of brown dead leaves. So what gives? Is there something wrong? Should I be concerned about the health of my tree? All valid questions.

Here at Green Leaf, we are proud of the value we provide our clients. From the initial inquiry through to ongoing maintenance, we bring a next level service, safety and professionalism that no one can match.

Enjoy the Beauty of Fall! Its time to prepare your trees for autumn and the cold harsh winter weather.
You’ll soon witness a spectacular sight throughout the region – the slow, beautiful change of green foliage to vibrant oranges, yellows, and reds. The vibrant green we’ve enjoyed throughout spring and summer is thanks to chlorophyll, the pigment key to photosynthesis.
Read MoreA tree inspection identifies possible issues, including hazards, that can help you address your trees' health, safety, and beauty.
Consider all the aspects of your life that require an inspection or regular checkup: your health, your vehicle, your home, your teeth, your favourite restaurant. Regular checkups are vital to helping prevent potential problems or dangers that could at best be costly to repair or cause irreparable damage, injury, or even the unthinkable. This applies to the trees on your property, too.

You know the old saying, “An ounce of prevention…”? Or, maybe, “An apple a day…”? These oh-so-familiar statements can apply to so many areas of our lives, including how we maintain the surroundings of our homes.
Read MoreWe are often asked how we calculate pricing for stump grinding services. The short answer is it depends on a few factors; stump size, location, species, ground type (ie. rocky ground and steep slopes), surface roots and level of cleanup can affect the pricing. We have a basic formula taking into account a cost per linear inch which can give a rough idea of costs without needing a site visit.

Read MoreFor the past many years, one of the biggest threats to the health of Columbia Valley forests has been the Douglas Fir Bark Beetle.
Bark beetles attack trees under strain, during periods of drought, for instance, and bore holes in the bark of the stressed trees. Where a healthy tree can fend off the attack by oozing pitch into the holes to force the beetle out, the drought-stressed tree cannot produce an adequate amount of pitch to fight off the little devils.
