Ah ... a tree rescuer! Thank you. I appreciate what you doing!

Thank you so much for these videos. As an arborist in the New England area with a deep admiration of trees, seeing these videos brings tears to my eyes. Seeing people with the same appreciation and love of trees as myself is a rare sight and makes me feel accompanied in my mission.

It's a wonderful thing that Bernie's doing but it appears have gotten to the point where he might want think about setting up a small local NGO to handle to increasing demand for tree rescues - and save his back in the process. It could coordinate with local authorities and nature reserves to find appropriate homes - local businesses might be interested in either providing sponsorship & or equipment for some of the bigger jobs. Many more trees could be rescued this way.

How doesn't he make good money from this. In Vancouver, developers are paying thousands for mature trees. Same goes for old shrubs, native plants, and perennial beds, obviously not thousands, but higher than nursery stock.
