Working as a tree care employee or an arborist can be challenging and demanding work. Though rewarding, there are risks involved while on the job. An average day can include cutting down a large, dangerous tree in Belle Meade or working on an emergency situation from a storm in Madison. Whatever the case, the Parke Company does their best to make sure Nashvillians receive the best tree service in Middle Tennessee, while still upholding high safety standards for their employees. The team at the Parke Company incorporates extensive training, supportive teamwork, and safety assessments for Parke Company employees.
Training — Just like any job, training is important for this role. But unlike some jobs, training is crucial for tree service. As an arborist, there are many risks and important details to adhere to. Sometimes trees need special treatment, especially when they risk falling down or getting certain diseases. Having the proper training for tree care is a great way to understand safety precautions.
Teamwork — At the Parke Company, we are family. Landscape and tree services are completed in teams. Not only does this ensure the job is done efficiently and correctly, but it also encourages things to be done safely. With the help of fellow arborists, you can cut down trees with ease.
Safety Assessment — This is crucial for a tree care job, especially one that requires employees climbing or cutting trees down. The Parke Company assesses all jobs to make sure their employees are out of harm’s way.
We take employee safety seriously. From training, teamwork and safety assessment, we have our tree service employees covered. Interested in becoming part of our team?

Every year on April 22, or Earth Day, hundreds of people get together and plant trees, clean up their communities, and raise awareness for the environment. Though we at the Parke Company think it is always a great day to plant trees, this day is a great opportunity to take action in tree care. There are so many reasons why planting trees are necessary for not just the earth, but Nashville itself! From clean water to soil erosion, the list goes on and on. Here are other few reasons to consider participating in this year’s festivities.
We are finally getting toward the end of winter. (We can hardly believe it either.) But as the warm weather begins to pop up, it is important to make sure you have all your landscape and tree services scheduled for the spring and summer scheduled. Your trees, landscape or lawns are a valuable asset to your Nashville property so it is incredibly important to schedule with the Parke Company for your tree care services.
