☀️ Our crews powered through the extreme heat this week, and we couldn't let them head into the long holiday weekend without a little thank you!

So, we wrapped the day early with some Kona Ice!

We're incredibly grateful for the dedication and effort our crews bring every day, rain or shine. Thank you for showing up, working hard, and getting the job done! 🌳

🍂 Fall is almost here in Cincinnati! 🍁

At GFLI, we’re looking forward to cooler weather, fun community events, and the changing leaves, but did you know fall is also a great time to give your trees some extra attention?

- Cooler temperatures put less stress on newly planted trees, making fall an ideal time to add new trees to your landscape. 🌱
- With leaves beginning to fall, your tree’s structure and overall crown become easier to see, making it a great time to identify potential concerns. 🔎
- Cooler weather can mean fewer disease-carrying insects, creating a better window for certain pruning needs. 🪵

Whether you’re planting, pruning, or simply checking in on the health of your trees, fall is the perfect season to get ahead of potential problems and help your landscape thrive.

What are you most looking forward to this fall? 🍂

🌳🐾 While surveying storm damage over the past few weeks, our crews performed a few unexpected rescue missions.

First, our arborists became aware of a raccoon who was trapped and separated from her kits. Our team safely freed her and got her back on her way.

Then came three baby squirrels who had fallen from their nest. We rescued them and safely delivered them to a local wildlife shelter.

Animal rescues may not be part of the everyday job, but when wildlife needs help, we’re happy to lend a hand!🌳💚

📚 Back to school, and back to safety! 🌳

As the school year gets underway in Cincinnati, our crews continue to sharpen their skills through monthly safety training.

During last month’s training, our teams focused on two essential pieces of equipment used regularly on our job sites: chainsaws 🪚 and mini skid steers (Dingos) 🚜.

Safety is a core part of what we do, which is why we prioritize monthly training covering equipment, job-site procedures, and best practices for our landscaping, tree care, and plant health care teams.

We do this to keep our crews safe, our customers protected, and our work performed to the highest standard. 🌿

A huge thank you to our crews!

They've worked tirelessly, and we are extremely grateful for their hard work helping homeowners with tree emergencies after the recent storms.

⚠️The recent high heat and severe storms today put stress on the larger, mature trees in the area, making them susceptible to branch failure.

If you have a damaged or hanging tree limb, don’t wait for it to fall. Even branches that appear stable can become dangerous during or after a storm.

Our crews are available for emergency tree removal, hazardous limb removal, and securing damaged trees.

If you’re in the Greater Cincinnati Area and need emergency tree service, reach out to us. We’re here to help keep your property and neighborhood safe.

We hope the storms today pass without any damages but we are here for you 24/7 for any emergency tree work that comes your way!
