Trees are an essential part of life in Oregon. They contribute to our state's natural beauty as well as its economy and environment. About half of Oregon is forested land, and there are an estimated 2.9 million private-property trees in Portland alone.
As a homeowner in the Portland area with a mature tree in your yard, you understand the value and beauty that trees can bring to your property.
But, like any living thing, trees need particular care to stay healthy and strong. So, it's essential to ensure that your trees are well-maintained to protect both your property and the surrounding environment.
There’s no doubt that tree care is important. No matter the size and age of the trees on your property, proper maintenance is essential to keeping them healthy and strong for years to come.
Having your trees cared for by an experienced arborist can make a significant difference in their health and well-being. That’s exactly what our arborists at Oregon Tree Care are here for!
Our expert crew is led by Damien Carré, a certified arborist, certified tree risk assessor, and the founder of Oregon Tree Care. Learn more about him and what his team can do for you and your trees.

Trees are more than just beautiful — they provide shade during the summer months, help improve air quality, and even allow you to have privacy in your yard. Most importantly, they need to be cared for to thrive, just like any other living thing.
Taking care of your trees is essential to maintaining their health and beauty. However, you’re not an arborist — it can be hard to know what to do (and what not to do) to keep your trees in good shape.

Many people believe that because trees appear to grow so successfully and healthily without human intervention, they don’t need any type of care or maintenance. Nothing could be farther from the truth! Trees interact with us in subtle, yet important, ways. From cleaning the air we breathe to increasing the value of a home, their cooperation with us is undeniable — and they need our care just like we need theirs.
