This description won't be typical. We're a small tree care company providing service in the Peterborough area. This is a veteran-owned company and as the owner I've had experiences in my (military) career that have made me clearly realize that there is much more to life than work. With that said, we've always had a certain culture here that is very fun, down-to-earth, positive, flexible and relaxed, though we like to work hard as well.

Mid-day swims and ice cream stops are not uncommon and much time is often spent in the mornings in casual conversation about life before the work begins. It's really just hanging out and doing cool stuff. Like I said, generally, I shut things down come late fall, but this year, I've got a lot of work that I want to take care of and I need some good helpers until at least January. By "good", I mean someone that has enough skill in this...
