Fredrik Johnson from Woodbury
"Many thanks to the crew from NE Horticultural Services for doing a great job today at the Glebe House Museum in Woodbury. They removed the poison ivy and other vines that were climbing the beautiful Sycamore trees; cut and chipped two large, dead crabapple trees, cleaned up all of the fallen limbs from this past winter and even planted two new pink-flowering crabapple trees. We are always happy to have your crew work for us."
