I looked through the archives and didn't see anything relating to this, but if you've already discussed this, sorry, although maybe some newbies have input.
What got you started in this industry? I hear a lot of people asking how to get started, but I'd like to know what turn of events put you in trees.
I'll start...I grew up in a family that lives and breathes the family tree and landscape business. Every day, my dad would come home and share about the day's work, and I would get excited hearing about the jobs. As little kids, he took us out for estimates and for visiting job sites. Once I was older, I could work with "the men" and participate.
Things grew each summer as I picked up new tricks and forgot half the ones I learned the summer before. Now, I'm going to school and hope to continue the business as my dad would like to pass off some of the stresses of running it and start to enjoy what got him started - the trees.
