 Landscape Design
and consultation
The Trim Pines family and staff know that homeowners have a lot of
questions when making improvements to their yards. We're ready with the
answers you need about tree and plant selection. The answers come from the many years
of experience growing things in the clay soils of Grand Blanc. We know how
to work with the clay soils to produce low maintenance, unique landscapes
for our clients.
Soils are the life blood of a farm, and we
think that applies to the yards where people want to grow
healthy plants and lawns. We encourage our customers to gain an
understanding of the basics of plant vigor and health that start with soil
structure, drainage and water conservation. This farm-based philosophy helps
our customers enjoy beautiful low maintenance landscapes.
We can help with solutions for choices in screening, a garden bed or two,
or your entire landscape. From a visit to the nursery with your pictures, to
a fully-drafted landscape design, the possibilities are unlimited!

A few things to know when you're visiting to look
at trees

 Tree & Landscape Installation
Trim Pines Farm provides the specialized equipment and expertise to
effectively install trees and landscaping.
Standard Tree Planting involves delivery of one or more trees on a truck
or trailer. Our mechanical digging augers help us dig the planting holes,
and then place the trees in them.
Truck Tree Spade Planting involves at least one trip to the planting site
for each tree planted, with a large truck-mounted tree spade. Producing superior transplant response, this method
requires accessibility for a large motor home-sized vehicle.
Trim Pines must, as the party responsible for digging, call Miss Dig to
have underground utilities identified. We’ll ask you for the appropriate
information.
Please ask for a quote based on the number & size of trees on your order,
the distance to your site and planting conditions. Call Trim Pines Farm at (810) 694-9958 or use the
online message form for more information on
tree and landscape installation in Southeast Michigan .

Lawn Installation and Maintenance
Trim Pines Farm has enjoyed using a time-honored method of lawn
installation, called direct seeding. Rather than using short-rooted sod on
top of a hard-packed clay, or spreading seed on top of the soil, they plant
the way a corn farmer plants his "grass." The seed goes directly
into the prepared soil, and germinates there to provide a high-quality,
lower maintenance lawn.
Christmas Trees, Hayrides, and family fun
Since 1981, Trim Pines Farm has offered "choose and cut" Christmas trees.
More recently, Christmas at Trim Pines Farm has expanded to include
entertaining activities such as Santa Claus, refreshments, reindeer, and up to 5 teams of Belgian, Percheron and Haflinger horses pulling wagons. Learn
more by going to the Christmas Trees section
of our website.
