🌳🧗Ending the kids' climbing season on a high note!

Our own Vaughn Mehler, Sean-Salvatore Cerchiara, and August Hoppe recently teamed up with the Wisconsin Arborist Association (WAA) at the Riverbend Nature Center for our last Kids Climb of the year!

With so many excited kids ready to climb, the day flew by! We're grateful for opportunities like these to get kids outdoors, introduce them to the world of trees, and share our love for arboriculture. 💚

Thanks to the WAA and everyone who helped make this year's final climb a success!

🌳🏆 Putting Their Skills to the Test!

A few of our Hoppe arborists recently competed in the Wisconsin Arborist Association's Tree Climbing Competition in De Pere, WI!

Sean-Salvatore Cerchiara, Cameron Miller, and Brian Blau took on multiple events, including Ascent & Belayed Speed Climbing and the Master's Challenge. These events put arborists' climbing skills, technique, speed, and problem-solving to the test.

Great job representing Hoppe, guys! We're proud to see you putting your skills to work and competing alongside fellow arborists across Wisconsin. 🌲👏

🚴🌳 Riding for the Future of Trees

Hoppe Tree Service President August Hoppe recently took part in the Tour des Trees, an annual cycling adventure that brings arboriculture professionals together each year to raise awareness and support for the future of trees. This year, riders took on the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains.

Since 1992, Tour des Trees riders have helped shine a light on the importance of science-based tree care while supporting TREE Fund research, education, and scholarships that advance arboriculture and urban forestry.

We're proud to see August pedal for a cause that helps make our industry, and the communities we care for, stronger for generations to come. 🌳

Want to support the cause? Donations to TREE Fund help fund research and education programs that benefit trees and the people who care for them.

Storm damage can leave homeowners needing care fast. But it's important to know who you're hiring and what to expect when it comes to pricing. 🌳⚠️

President of Hoppe Tree Service, August Hoppe, was recently interviewed by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about avoiding tree removal scams and price gouging after a storm.

Check out the article to learn more about what homeowners should know before hiring a tree service. 👇

After a tornado ripped through Appleton in July, a resident was quoted $13,000 to remove a large tree from his yard. Now he wonders if he overpaid.

🌸Magnolia scale is active right now, making late summer the ideal time to inspect your tree. Catching it early can help prevent branch dieback, declining tree health, and the sticky honeydew that attracts ants, wasps, and black sooty mold.

Watch for:
🍃White or tan, waxy bumps on branches
🍃Black, soot-like mold on the foliage
🍃Sticky residue on leaves or nearby surfaces

If something doesn't look right, give us a call or request a visit with one of our Certified Arborists to determine the best treatment plan.
