Tree Planting
When you plant a tree, you make an investment — one that not only adds value to your life, home, and property, but also to Calgary and even the entire planet. However, before you or anyone else can reap the benefits of this investment, you must first plant the right tree in the right place in the right way—in other words, there’s more to tree planting than digging a hole, throwing in a tree, and covering it with some dirt. To ensure that your tree is given the foundation it needs to live a long, healthy, productive life, you must follow proper tree planting steps.
If you’re not sure of these steps and want to add some more trees to beautiful Calgary, Ocean Tree Care would be glad to help you out. Tree planting is not only something we do well, but it’s also something we love. As experienced and knowledgeable tree service providers, we are confident you’ll be happy with our professional tree planting services.

The Benefits Of Tree Planting
Property Value
Planting individual trees can certainly make a difference, but the real value comes when you strategically plant trees that contribute to the overall landscape of your property. In fact, many sources claim that the collective influence of well-maintained landscapes can increase property value by up to 20%.
Save Energy
Shade of a mature tree can save on air conditioning costs in the summer, and reduce heating costs in the winter by blocking the wind. According to a recent study, trees properly placed around homes and buildings can decrease air conditioning needs by 30% and save 20% – 50% on heating costs.
Environment
Both above and below ground, trees have an impact on the area in which they reside. Not only do they prevent soil erosion and expand natural habitats, but they also combat climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the soil, and emitting oxygen into the atmosphere.

Not only do they prevent soil erosion and expand natural habitats, but they also combat climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the soil, and emitting oxygen into the atmosphere. Some research, for example, estimates that 100 trees can remove up to 53 tons of carbon dioxide and other pollutants from the air each year.
Privacy
If you would like to create a private, backyard oasis that provides the feeling of seclusion while also staying true to nature, a row of trees can be the perfect way to accomplish this.
Wildlife Shelter
Trees not only provide wildlife with much needed shelter from the elements, but also can attract a variety of birds and small animals (like squirrels) looking for food or a site for reproduction.
