How Arboriculture works

Protecting Trees, Supporting Communities

Arboriculture is the craft and science of caring for individual trees where people live and build. It grew from early street-tree plantings and orchard know-how into a modern discipline that blends biology, risk assessment, and practical site management.

In the Vancouver and surrounding municipalities, you can see its roots in windbreaks, shade trees, and community plantings—now backed by clear standards, better tools, and a stronger focus on safety and long-term canopy health.

And yes… trees are awesome. They cool our homes, quiet our streets, shelter birds and pollinators, and make neighbourhoods feel alive. But they’re also vulnerable during construction and drought.

That’s where we come in: translating good science into simple steps crews can follow, so trees thrive and projects stay compliant.
