​When thinking about creating value in your landscape, think trees!  Trees around your home can increase it’s value up to 20%, according to the Management Information Services.  In fact, a mature tree can have a value of $1000-$10,000 (Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers)! 
Other than their natural beauty, trees provide many values to homeowners:
  • Street trees help shade the concrete and help cool the entire neighborhood.
  • A windbreak can help lower your heating bills 10-20%.
  • Shade trees planted to the south and west of your home can cut cooling costs by 15-30%.
  • A backyard orchard lets you grow your own fruit.
  • Nut trees can be incorporated into windbreaks or serve as shade trees.
  • Trees stabilize slopes and anchor the soil; during heavy rains, mudslides and floods occur on denuded land.
  • Trees are the only home feature guaranteed to grow in value over time.
Trees are on the job 24 hours a day to improve your life, so this spring, please plant a tree!
If you'd like to see the benefits that the trees in your yard are already providing you, you can access www.treebenefits.com.  This site will show you how your tree saves you on energy costs, helps you retain storm water, balances your carbon footprint, and more!  Check it out!
