Work ethic and life philosophy
Our work ethic and life philosophy are simple but carry immense weight. In the end, we are human beings trying to understand existence, seeking happiness and love, creating our own path, and moving forward with great respect for nature and other human beings.
When it comes to trees, whenever humans interfere with them, just like with nature in general, there will be some kind of impact, larger or smaller, depending on the respect we offer and the techniques we use. A constant discussion is whether more harm is done by using screws or ties around the bark, or whether we should use trees as anchor points for any type of structure.
Our ethics compel us to always seek alternatives that generate the least impact.
In this regard, our ethics compel us to always seek alternatives that generate the least impact. We always seek help and rely on experts and professionals in various related fields, such as dendrologists and renowned arborists with USA certifications and years of experience, and other experts who help us reach the best conclusions. In this way, we ensure that our impact is as minimal as possible, allowing the trees to recover quickly from the initial stress caused by the changes in tension and the drilling or tying we perform on them.
Based on all these discussions, we have concluded that drilling a tree and placing a screw (with the right metal, technique, and respect) is less harmful and easier for the tree to recover from than wrapping the bark with suffocating ties.
Regarding our personal philosophy and experience, we believe that trees are very strong, resilient beings that contain a beautiful healing energy, transmit peace, and can heal the heart. We believe that by bringing more people into nature and up into the trees, we are helping our mental health, reconnecting with our inner selves, and returning to our natural, human state.
