I am thinking of putting up a garage off to the side of my property, I already put in a ditch to divert water from the hill, the garage will be built into a little bank, There is a horse fence there and right in front of it is a row of trees, A mix of hemlocks,pines,spruces and Hickory, There is are some maple's off to the side, There is a Apple tree right in the middle which I have to cut down, so the garage if I left the trees will be lined on the back and one side with trees.
Now My ? is Ill have to dig down about 4 foot in the back and dig less in the front to get it level with my Dway, How close can I dig the trees to try and not kill them, I would like to put them as close to the trees as I can, I may have to take the trees down if I can't keep them alive. The trees are all about 30 to 50 ft tall and not very wide at the bottom, all look fairly young.
Thanks
