Race Mountain Tree Services

Race Mountain Tree Services, Inc., originally Race Mountain Forest Services, was established in 1977. For 10 years Ron applied his forestry background to forestry consulting, working with private landowners to provide forestry services throughout the greater Berkshire region. Through a natural evolution and love of trees Ron began studying the work of Dr. Alex Shigo, attending lectures and reading his books. By 1988 Race Mountain was more involved in tree care than forestry, and over the course of time the path to arboriculture became clear and Race Mountain Tree Services was born.
