be the greatest grandkids around and doing stuff.

We've good club to be part of.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, yeah, it does seem really really fun. And of
course as we wrap up twenty twenty five and look
to twenty twenty six, it's funny is a lot of
folks that I get a chance to talk to. One
of the cool things is commitment to year round service.
And I know one of the things that at Ham's
(02:02):
Arborcare is just that you guys are working and available
for folks year round. You don't take winters off, you
don't convert over to plowing and other things. You guys
go all year round, don't you, Kevin.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah, indeed we do. I mean yesterday it was kind
of flurrying all day on and off, and we were
out there in the trees doing work. If you were
multitasking into plowing, you'd be salting and you know, whatever
you have to do on those days. But we're we
just focused on trees.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
And speaking of focusing on trees as as we are
in the in the winter months, we talk a lot
about oak trees during the summer and of course getting
folks ready for when it's a good time and in
some cases time by ordinance that you're able to do that.
Right now is that time, you know, we think about
things that really go well this time of year. Oak
(02:56):
pruning is is something that that folks should be getting
on the camp under four, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, definitely, we're we just you know, did some of
that yesterday and again today. And you know March first
or March thirty first is gonna come by very quickly.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
And that's the thing too, Kevin, is is you know,
you and I get a chance to talk each week
and uh, and it's it's always super informative, and we
talk about kind of getting on the schedule in the
importance of that. What I haven't figured out yet is
is a way to point out that as you mentioned there, uh,
these days, March will be here literally in like a
(03:37):
snap of a finger and and and I'm guilty of
this just like anybody else is like I'll be like, oh,
I got a little time, got a little time, and
you're like wait what uh? And in the Christmas was
that same way as like oh and maybe it's a
guy thing. It's like, oh, I've got a month, I've
got weeks, and you're like, it's Christmas, Eve, I gotta
gotta get my shot.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
I mean, the days are getting longer. Yeah, all right,
you know he just blew right through the winter equin. Yeah.
Here we are all the way to January just about.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
And so as we as we kick off the new
year and get into twenty twenty six. I know, folks
that have worked with you in the past, one of
the important things to do is is to is to
keep on top of this stuff. And one of the
great things because again and people have we have busy lives,
and again time seems to just fly by. One of
the great things about working with hams Arborcare Kevin is
(04:24):
you guys do a great annual reminder to folks of like,
here's here's the work that that we've done. Here is
what needs to be looked on. Kind of those those
renewal notices and other things for folks to keep them,
keep them on tasking, on schedule and their busy lives.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah, you know, so many things in our lives you
just you're not watching them. Yeah, you know, you're not
paying attention, and all of a sudden you're like, oh,
you know, this is kind of out of control. And
you know, training pruning is one of those things. We
now have training pruning on our renewal schedule. So we'll
be sending out notice this here and January for all
(05:01):
the plant healthcare and training pruning that we did, you know,
a couple couple of years ago, every two years for
training pruning just to keep the tree growing in the
in the right direction. And of course every year we
do our our training pruning on our planting because with
our five year warranty we provide the training pruning for those.
(05:24):
So Taylor went out this year and went all around
and got every tree that we planted in the last
couple of years. We went and trim those up. And
you know, sometimes it's just a couple of cuts, you know,
but those are meaningful cuts because now it's going to
redirect that growth in the direction that we wanted.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I was going to ask you too, Kevin. Obviously, today's
going to be balmy, but tonight it's going to get cold,
and as we get into January and February, it's only
going to get colder. One of the cool additions that
you guys have at Ham's Arborcare is obviously, uh, you
take good care of trees and and work on planting
sprunings and and and overall plant help. The other thing
that that you do is keeping folks comfortable. And you
(06:09):
guys have your your portage and main boilers available and uh,
I'm gonna guess that some of these upcoming days you're
gonna get get a bit of a workout with that
with that boiler, aren't you.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah, Yeah, we're we'll be We'll be stacking it full tonight,
Uh for the dropping temperatures. And you know, I'm really
pleased we we switched to Portage in Maine this year.
We had a different brand and boiler and the efficiency
has been marked. You know, we can see the difference.
(06:40):
And they just there's so many great factors to these
these boilers, and you know a lot of people aren't
aware of what they are. Of course, if you're in
town uh, most cities and municipalities don't allow outdoor wood
burning furnaces, but if you're out in the townships and
in the country, it's a great way to have. You
(07:01):
can kind of stack up your pile of wood, you know,
right next to the boiler, and and you feed it
in the morning, feeding that night. It's an easy chore that,
you know, and you don't have to have super dry wood.
They're very forgiving that way. And Portage, Maine in particular,
has has a masonry bottom or refractory cement bottom that
(07:28):
really holds a lot of heat and allows the recovery time.
You know, quick, some of these boilers, you lose your
temperature of your water and it takes a long time to.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Get it back.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
It's just marked. You know, by the time I'm done
feeding the boiler, the temperatures coming back up again. So
it's amazing.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
That is it's so cool. You talk about it. You got,
you got way. You look at the heat, the home,
you got the workshop, those type of areas, they are
absolutely perfect. And of course Kevin and the team at
Amasarborcare they are your outlet for those poor Jamaine boilers. Again,
what great if you are in a municipality that allows them,
or if you're out in the out in the kind
of the more rural areas that absolutely allow them. It
(08:08):
is a phenomenal thing, as Kevin mentioned, some great features
and really really easy to use, and very forgiving with
the with the wooden who doesn't have those you know
a few few piles of wood that you may not
have taken the best care.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I would say there's more people that don't dry their
would properly than there are those do.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yeah, I think for said that right with that great day,
to get on the calendar and get that plan healthcare done.
