We understand that service providers are only as good as their people. Our Managers and Supervisors are trained and credentialed to ensure industry-leading expertise in all areas of arboricultural and horticultural management.
All employees participate in weekly training classes to build on skills and review safety practices. From pruning styles to pest identification, from irrigation troubleshooting to first-aid training, our team takes seriously its responsibility to our clients and to each other.
More than two thirds of our staff have been with us for at least 10 years, which is well above the industry average. High retention ensures stability among our crews and enables us to provide consistent, quality service with a knowledge base that has grown with time. We are proud that our clients often view our crews as members of their community.
As a business, our company has many rings in its trunk. It all started in 1972, when current owner Craig Lundin purchased a small tree-care company from his sculpture teacher at California College of the Arts. Craig continued making sculpture and took on the (part-time) company called Tree Sculpture to help pay the bills and raise a family. Over the next 15 years, he built a reputation for careful, artistic pruning by certified arborists who kept the primary focus on the health of the tree.
In 1989, a group of clients asked if the company would be willing to take care of landscapes as well as trees. Craig said yes – and found himself in the unique position of providing full-spectrum landscape services.
Like a healthy oak, Tree Sculpture grew slowly and steadily over the next two decades, with both main branches thriving. Craig’s oldest son, Cassidy, who worked alongside crews during summer breaks while earning his degree, became more interested in and passionate about the business, and in 2010, he accepted the position of President.
The maintenance division earned a reputation for its good work and continued to grow – and by 2012, a new division called Terra Landscape was formed. Since then, we’ve provided award-winning services to a widening group of clients who appreciate our comprehensive approach.
Tree Sculpture remains small enough to provide personalized service yet large enough to respond efficiently and effectively to any challenge.
