You may have noted that the trees of Wash West have been suffering since the departure of our last beloved tree master. There have been few sick and dying trees replaced, and almost NO new plantings. Wash West sorely needs a new Tree Tender. If you are a lover of all things green, and can deal with phone calls and the occasional snarl of red tape, this job is for you.
