Alden was a huge help in selecting and locating 5 trees for our Somerville garden. It was invaluable to have his guidance on what would work well and meet our needs. The crew was punctual, pleasant, and professional and the trees have been doing great!

I had a great experience working with Alden and his team to plan out some new trees for our yard and to get some TLC for the existing ones. They've been very responsive when I've had questions and were very easy to work with.

Barrett Tree East has been maintaining our trees for over 10 years. We have an assigned arborist that we work with who knows the property. They are professional, knowledgeable, responsive and do excellent work. We have a very large property and have used other tree companies over the years. Barrett is by far the best.
