Bringing Expert Tree Care to Communities Across Northwestern Vermont

Teachers Tree Service has been caring for trees across Northwestern Vermont since 2003. From the established neighborhoods of Burlington and South Burlington to the lakefront properties of Shelburne, Charlotte, and the Champlain Islands, our team brings expert tree care to communities throughout the region.

Whether you need pruning for a mature maple, emergency storm response, or plant health care treatments for ash trees, we have the expertise and equipment to handle it — and the local knowledge to do it right.

Reliable, Thorough & Efficient

"We’ve used Teachers Tree Service for several fairly big jobs, and there is a reason we’ve gone back to them. They are reliable, thorough, efficient, competitively priced, and leave the site well tidied up. Will definitely call on them again when needed."

Why Northwestern Vermont Trusts Teachers Tree Service

There are a lot of tree services in Vermont. Here's what sets us apart:

  • 8 ISA Certified Arborists on Staff: More certified professionals than any other tree service in the region. That means every job is guided by science-backed expertise, not guesswork.

  • TCIA Accredited: One of only two TCIA-accredited tree care companies in Northwestern Vermont, and one of only two that are locally owned. Accreditation means we meet the industry's highest standards for safety, training, and business practices.

  • Locally Owned Since 2003: We're not a franchise or a private equity rollup. Teachers is an independent Vermont business, and we make decisions based on what's best for your trees — not a corporate playbook.

  • Comprehensive Plant Health Care: Most local tree services focus on removals. We offer a full range of plant health care treatments, from deep root fertilization to emerald ash borer management, because keeping trees healthy is just as important as taking them down.

  • 90% Repeat Customer Rate: Our clients keep coming back. That kind of loyalty doesn't happen by accident — it's the result of honest communication, quality work, and arborists who take the time to explain what your trees need and why.
