3/3/2023

1 Comment

 
We're proud to present the latest round of Gift of Beautiful Trees charity projects. This holiday season, we were able to bless six different families who desperately needed tree care. nearly $18,000 in FREE tree services were provided this year! We couldn't have made this much of an impact without the help of our local tree service partners: 
  • Acme Lawn and Tree
  • American Arborist
  • Champion Tree, LLC
  • Cut & Grind Tree Care

As always, the connections we make with the families nominated for these projects warms our hearts and remind us that we all have so much to be grateful for. Nearly every nomination we receive involves heartache, tragedy, misfortune, illness and so many other trying circumstances. Although we are just trimming and removing trees, we see time and again that they can become quite a burden when life already has its challenges. We are always humbled to be a part of lightening the load for these families.

Faces of Omaha 2021

7/7/2021

7 Comments

 
We believe we are the face of tree services in Omaha, Nebraska, which is why we're honored to again be featured in Omaha Magazine's "Faces of Omaha." We're always searching for ways to improve our customer experience, create a fantastic workplace for our hard working crew, and serve the Omaha community. To us, it's about so much more than trees.

Following stay-at-home recommendations during the pandemic has been challenging for people, but it’s been good for their trees, said Arbor Aesthetics founders Jeff and Amy Grewe, because hanging around more means property owners are noticing that their landscaping needs maintenance.

“It’s people reinvesting in their landscape now that they have more time at home,” Amy said. 

“That and the fact that people aren’t spending money going out to eat, or going to a game, or going on vacation,” Jeff added. “They have more money on hand.”

The company, which celebrated its 15-year anniversary in 2020, is still in growth mode. It has gained residential and business customers, and its team of certified arborists also see a lot of repeat business from a loyal customer base. 

“The Arbor Aesthetics experience is a cohesive one from the first phone call into the office to when the last leaf is raked up in the yard,” Jeff said.“It’s a beautiful experience  because it’s so unexpectedly the way it’s supposed to be; we are professionals serving professionals.”

Gift of Beautiful Trees 2020 Complete!

5/13/2021

6 Comments

 
2020 sure threw us for a loop, and we were hoping 2021 would cut us some slack. When it came to completing our 2020 Gift of Beautiful Trees projects after the holidays, the weather just wasn't cooperating. At some point, it got to be so late in the spring that we decided to wait to take "after" photos so we could at least get some leaves on the trees for the full effect. We're glad we did! So, we're a little late sharing this - but better late than never!

Story continues below...
We were again overwhelmed with nominations for our Gift of Beautiful Trees program for 2020, and no doubt, the pandemic contributed to hard times for so many families in our community. We were both heartbroken and touched to hear about how many were struggling last year, and just how many people were looking out for their friends, families and neighbors. Even perfect strangers submitted nominations for people they'd never met, but knew they could use a helping hand.

When Jeff and I review nominations, we use a loose scoring matrix to help us narrow down the projects based on the personal story that is submitted, how dire the need is in terms of safety, and whether or not our company is well-suited for the project with the resources and equipment we have. 

When we came across this struggling Cottonwood, we knew immediately that we HAD to do something. This tree was full of dead limbs over the street, sidewalk, driveway and house where the nominee and her daughter frequented. The result is beautiful and the tree is now an incredible historical feature and anchor point of the neighborhood - not an eyesore or hazard. The nominee was so grateful to not have to worry anymore.

Our second selected nomination was an anonymous submission, tipping us off to a family who had weathered extensive and very unexpected health challenges in 2020. The husband, Nick, showed up for his family in big ways and worked long, hard hours to provide for them during this time. When we saw just how many trees were in their backyard that needed attention, we were anxious to help. We visited a couple of months later to grab a photo after the trees had leafed-out and were so thrilled with the results of their beautiful, park-like backyard. 

As always, these projects are always about so much more than trimming and removing trees. We're showing up and serving our community (one of our company values!) and fulfilling our mission of Creating Connections through Trees. We're sharing our gifts however we can, and we are thankful to our community for supporting our business so that we can support our community in return.

Arbor Aesthetics earns Accreditation by the TCIA

10/16/2020

OMAHA TREE CARE COMPANY BECOMES SECOND IN NEBRASKA TO EARN ACCREDITATION
Program helps consumers find high-quality tree care companies
 
Arbor Aesthetics Tree Service, a residential tree care company located in Omaha, Nebraska has been accredited under a new Tree Care Company Accreditation program administered by the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA) and built on the threefold foundation of ethics, quality, and consumer confidence.
 
The new program represents the only business practices and compliance audit process in the tree care industry. Under the process, businesses undergo extensive review of professional practices aimed at safeguarding consumers.  The review includes:
​
► best business practices
► ethical business conduct
► formal training and certification of employees
► compliance with industry standards
► consumer satisfaction
► adherence to safety standards
► insurance coverage
 
TCIA Accreditation means Arbor Aesthetics adheres to all the accreditation standards and has undergone a rigorous application process.  TCIA verified this by conducting an on-site audit of Arbor Aesthetics.
 
TCIA Accreditation for Arbor Aesthetics is in effect for a period of three years, with renewal check-ups required every year.  The annual renewal ensures that the required number of certified arborists are still on staff, that the company is still properly insured and that the company has a good safety and consumer satisfaction rating.  The company is re-accredited every three years.
 
According to TCIA president Mark Garvin, “TCIA Accreditation provides consumers a way to find tree care companies that are trustworthy in their business and tree care practices.  Our TCIA Accreditation program is the only one of its kind in America and will give consumers peace of mind.”
 
The process of becoming accredited is no easy task, according to Amy Grewe, President. “The process is incredibly thorough. They left no stone unturned,” states Grewe. “Jeff and I are pleased that in our 15th year in business, we have finally been recognized as one of the best tree care companies around, joining only one other accredited company in Nebraska.
 
Garvin echoes that sentiment. “Arbor Aesthetics has made a commitment to excellence in all facets of its business. I applaud their efforts.”

Ash Tree Removal with Free Replacement!

8/17/2020

13 Comments

 
Is it time to say goodbye to your ash tree? We are THRILLED to announce our new FREE ash tree replacement program! As the Emerald Ash Borer population ramps up over the coming years, many homeowners will choose not to treat their ash tree, and that's okay. Not every ash tree SHOULD be treated. Regardless, losing a tree is sad, and we're seizing this opportunity to increase the diversity of Omaha's community forest to enhance its ecological value and safeguard against future invasive insects and diseases.

If you plan to remove your ash tree, do it soon. Don't wait until it's dead or starts to decline. If we remove it for you, we'll replace it for FREE with your choice of eight native, locally grown species from our friends at Great Plains Nursery.

Faces of Omaha 2020

6/22/2020

We're again honored to be included in Omaha Magazine's "Faces of Omaha." 15 years into our journey, we're still coming up with better ways to serve our clients, create a great place to work for our employees, and create a higher standard of tree care by educating our staff and clients about arboriculture.

"Trees ground us,” Arbor Aesthetics Co-founder Amy Grewe said. “Trees connect us all.”

As the 15-year-old company has branched out, its employees have all become certified arborists, a reflection of the team’s dedication to providing the best possible care to the trees that enhance the community’s urban landscapes.

“That says a lot for the kind of talent we attract and that our people take their work seriously,” Amy said.

The team’s expertise is rooted in outstanding customer service and respect for each other, founder Jeff Grewe said. “We’ve redefined our mission and vision statements and core values,” Jeff said. “In doing so, we’ve created a cohesive and harmonious culture where our employees take ownership and are encouraged to grow personally and professionally. There are a lot of choices in our industry, but at the end of the day, people want to feel good about who they interacted with. It comes down to friendly, certified, professional arborists. That’s who we are. There are a lot of tree companies out there but only Arbor Aesthetics hits all of those marks.”

Gift of Beautiful Trees 2019 Complete!

3/11/2020

35 Comments

 
Spring has arrived and it seems like ages ago that we were summoning nominations from the Omaha community for our 5th annual Gift of Beautiful Trees program. Each year we select at least one nominee to receive up to $2,500 in FREE tree trimming or removal services. Over the course of the last five years, we've donated more than $30,000 in tree work to families in need. We all know trees can add significant value to our lives and homes, but they can require costly maintenance and we understand that proper tree care is often not budgeted for and is a luxury for many families. During the holiday season, we can't help but think about the stress some families might be enduring - trying to make ends meet and providing a memorable holiday for their loved ones. That's where we come in. Sure - it's just tree trimming, but we like to think of it less as a gift of manual labor and more as a gift of peace of mind and the comfort that you are seen and cared for by your community in times of need.

As always, I'd like to start by saying nothing gives me more faith in the power of community than watching nomination after nomination roll into my inbox every holiday season. Jeff and I read through each nomination and consider the degree of urgency of the project (is the tree dangerous?), whether or not the work can be completed within one day, the difficulty of the project (do we have the right resources?), and how dire the situation is (what is the person or family going through?).

This year we selected two families to receive the Gift of Beautiful Trees. We always respect the privacy of our recipients, which means we aren't always able to share their personal stories or identities. This year we asked only to share before and after photos of the projects with the public. No matter - we were grateful to be able to share our gifts and resources with these families, lighten their burdens, and spark hope by removing some dangerous and troublesome trees from their properties.

We are already looking forward to 2020 and our six year of giving back to our community! Follow us on Facebook for updates on next year's projects!
