July – Wild Willow

July – Wild Willow

Owner: Karin Déry
Location: Sherwood Park

Backstory:

“This huge stump is from a 55 year old willow that has been both a blessing and a nuisance, especially during the last 20 years. Our kids loved to climb it when they were younger but the amount of branches it shed was ridiculous! So we got it cut down and the Good Grinder did the rest.”

June – Concrete Jumper

June – Concrete Jumper

Owner: Lee Caiseey
Location: Ritchie Area

Backstory:

“Our massive spruce tree was dying from the roots being covered in concrete for its lifetime. We had it removed two years earlier, but the stump was fully encased in concrete and the stump overlapped it fully. We got a new fence installed and thus had to get the stump removed from a very difficult area near the old fence. The Good Grinder gave us an affordable quote and had no problems with the removal, they even added a small stump from another globe cedar nearby. Amazing job done by a quality company, also local to Ritchie. Great job!”

Location: Stony Plain

Backstory:

“One single large maple tree. Stump 4 foot diameter. Not sure of age, the house was built in 1968 but this block was the site of a demonstration farm in the early 1900’s.The tree was very hard to manage and right next to the driveway which we wanted to expand so it was removed.”
