Meet Brandon, the owner and operater of Pisgah Tree Care.

Prior to starting Pisgah Tree Care, Brandon served in the United States Coast Guard for 7 years; stationed in various places from Alaska to California.  After getting out of the Coast Guard he moved to North Carolina to pursue a degree in aviation management and a commercial pilots license.  With a background in rock climbing he then found himself getting pulled in to doing tree work.  It was during that time he discovered careers paths in wilderness therapy.  That is when he moved to Asheville to receive his bachelors in Outdoor Leadership at Warren Wilson College.  While attending WWC, Brandon continued doing tree work to support himself.  After graduation he worked at a treatment center for young adults recovering from drug and alcohol addiction that was all wilderness based.  It was during that time that he gained a deeper understanding for what nature truly had to offer us, along with an appreciation for a great variety of tree species in WNC.  After closing that chapter of his life and not knowing what to do next he found himself working full time for a local tree service.  And in 2019 he decided to go out on his own and started Pisgah Tree Care.

"While I may cut down trees for a living I don't just cut them down to make a dollar.  My hope is to preserve as many native species as possible while also keeping my customers goals in mind."  -Brandon
