How to best care for your trees, shrubs, and other greenery. Learn from our tree care specialists serving the Columbia Valley including Invermere and Golden, BC.
At Green Leaf Tree Services, our mission has always been simple — to raise the standard of professional tree care across the East Kootenays. From our beginnings in the Columbia Valley back in 2007, we’ve grown branch by branch, community by community. And now, we’re proud to say that Kimberley and Cranbrook BC have become a vital part of our story.
Read MoreGolden, BC isn’t just where we work — it’s our home. From the Maples and Green ash trees lining neighborhood streets to the Spruce and Douglas firs framing the mountain views, our trees are part of what makes this community so special. At Green Leaf Tree Services, we believe caring for Golden’s trees is about more than just the job — it’s about protecting the landscapes we all enjoy, keeping our community safe, and ensuring the next generation grows up surrounded by healthy, vibrant trees.
Read MoreTrees are living investments that need the right care to thrive — and one of the best ways to support their long-term health is with deep root fertilization. At Green Leaf Tree Services, we recommend spring and fall as the ideal times to deliver nutrients where trees need them most — directly to their roots.

It seems like every week — or at least every Tuesday — there’s a new tree service crew setting up shop around the Columbia Valley and East Kootenay. And honestly? We welcome it. This work matters, and there’s room in the industry for people who are committed to doing it right.
But tree work isn’t just a service — it’s a responsibility.
Read MoreEach spring and summer, migratory birds return to the Columbia Valley and East Kootenays to build nests, raise their young, and play a vital role in our ecosystems. These birds often nest in trees and shrubs, and disturbing an active nest—accidentally or not—can have serious consequences.
In Canada, birds are protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act, which prohibits the disturbance or destruction of active nests. That’s why timing and awareness are everything when it comes to tree work during nesting season.

This year, with the incredible generosity of community members like you, we raised over $800 for the Golden Food Bank! These funds will directly support local families in need, helping to provide access to nutritious food during the winter months. We are deeply thankful for your participation, and we’re thrilled to share the impact we’ve made together.
Read MoreLife in the Columbia Valley and East Kootenay regions can be challenging for trees due to the extreme weather conditions and occasional prolonged droughts that stress their health. Often, the early signs of tree stress go unnoticed until it’s too late. However, with proper care under the guidance of certified arborists, trees can thrive even in our unique mountain environment.

When we talk about the dormant season, we’re referring to the period of rest where trees enter a phase of inactivity and stop growing. During the weeks leading up and into early winter, they shed their leaves to economize and conserve resources – save them for their brilliant re-emergence in the spring!
So, as we make our way into November, with winter in the air and the dormant season for trees and shrubs just around the corner – it’s the perfect time to prune!

Both property owners and businesses can benefit from understanding the potential dangers posed by trees. A Certified Tree Risk Assessment can help determine if your tree is at risk of falling or poses a hazard to people and surroundings. Gaining clarity on potential risks is always a wise choice.
