Our Projects 

The Orchard Project | Bronswell Orchard 

This is Brownswell Orchard, a beautiful old designated heritage orchard in Holbeton... It can be found at the end of the village before the winding path takes you through the woods and down to the estuary. The apple trees had become overgrown and dense, making them unmanageable for the volunteers and keen gardeners of the village. 
 
The Devon Tree Co. was asked to assist with bringing the trees back to a more manageable condition; adhering to heritage guidelines, we pruned the trees, leaving any larger cuts as coronet tears, and stacked all the removed branches at the base of the trees, creating habitat piles, which will later rot down and enrich the orchard further. We were over the moon to be asked to help with such an important project in our own village, and we can't wait to see how the apples turn out next year.

Unique and Inspiring Projects 

While we excel in traditional tree surgery and hedge cutting, we thrive on unique and inspiring projects that set us apart. Every so often, we have the pleasure of working on extraordinary ventures that make us truly excited to share them with you. 

Historical Orchard Restoration 

Imagine the beauty of a historical orchard, laden with heritage fruit trees that have stood the test of time. We have had the privilege of restoring such orchards to their former glory, preserving their rich history and promoting biodiversity. Our expertise ensures that these precious orchards thrive once more. 

From Dead Tree to Garden Feature 

Sometimes, a tree's life comes to an end, but its legacy can live on in remarkable ways. We take pride in taking down deceased trees, milling them into usable timber, and crafting stunning garden features such as benches or swings. These bespoke creations not only honour the memory of the tree but also provide you with unique and sustainable additions to your outdoor space. 

Conservation at Its Best 

Our commitment to conservation extends to every project we undertake. Whether we are working in a historical orchard, crafting garden features, or embarking on other inspiring ventures, we prioritise the ecological value of each tree and seek to minimise our impact on the environment
