Autumn ivy removal
(Contributed by Lowen Wilmer)
When we bought our home in Green Acres it was our first, and we were not smart! We loved the trees and thought the ivy growing up them was beautiful – we had no idea how bad ivy is for trees and that it can kill them! In case we aren’t the only ones that just didn’t know- removing it yourself is a task that can be done just once a year. Below are links to videos with instructions. If you’re not a DIY type, keep an eye on this site for any deals with local contractors we may negotiate for the neighborhood.
