Saving your important Hemlock trees from HWA
Helping Land Owners throughout Nova Scotia save Hemlocks for future generations
Robinson Tree Preservation was founded by Scott Robinson in 2018. Scott is a Licensed Arborist and Pesticide Applicator with over 30 years of experience of working with landowners and controlling invasive tree pests. In 2019, he was the first in Nova Scotia to treat Eastern hemlock for HWA using IMA-Jet. Since then, Scott has helped preserve thousands of trees for hundreds of homeowners and cottagers in Annapolis, Digby, Yarmouth, Shelburne, Queens, Lunenburg, and Halifax counties.
In 2021, along with Dr. George Kovacs (Dalhousie), Scott co-founded the Sporting Lake Project, which raised more than $125,000 to treat every old-growth hemlock on an island the Tobeatic Wilderness Area (CBC, Saltscapes Magazine, LighthouseNow). In 2022, Robinson Tree Preservation was awarded a contract to treat old-growth hemlocks at Dennis Boot Lake in Kejimikujik National Park.
