Welcome to the Tree Talk Zone!

At Bud’s Tree Care, we know trees don’t come with instruction manuals — but lucky for you, we do. Whether you’re wondering when to trim that giant oak, what to do after a storm, or if that weird fungus on your maple is a problem (spoiler: probably), we’ve got answers.

We’re certified, family-owned, and deeply rooted in the community — and we’re here to make tree care easy, honest, and maybe even a little fun.

Dig into the most common questions below — and if you don’t see yours, just give us a shout. We love a good tree chat. 🌲
