I contacted Lincoln in late fall about several neglected fruit trees on my property. He told me the best time for pruning was early spring. He kept in touch over the winter and verified this week that I still wanted the service. Lincoln did a great job rescuing my fruit trees, as well as my beautiful lilac and basswood tree. Great service, great follow through and reasonable price. While he was here, my neighbor came over and hired him to take a tree down. He came the next day to finish my job and my neighbor's. I highly recommend Lincoln and his Sylvan Tree Care.

Lincoln and his team are good, conscientious, clean-up good - and are kind (did for neighbors - just because). They will be my tree-guys from here on in. Consider them....They are good and nice to have around.
Carolyn Scoppettone
I called Lincoln on the recommendation of a neighbor and I am really glad that I did. Lincoln has helped us with a variety of issues, from taking down dangerous trees on our sloping hill to safely removing a rogue vine clinging to the side of our 3-story house. Lincoln is professional and prompt. He does excellent work and his prices are reasonable. I highly recommend Sylvan Tree Care.
Bill Brown
Lincoln and his skilled associates did prompt and really excellent work for us at a very reasonable price. If you have not yet read the “About Us” page on this Web site I recommend that you do so. I believe that the philosophy of the company and the techniques used are truly models of social and environmental responsibility.

We needed to have tree branches removed that had reached and were hanging over the roof and providing a pathway way for local squirrels to get to our roof! Lincoln and his highly experienced, professional and friendly climbers arrived on time and did an amazing job and cleanup ( you wouldn't know anyone had been there). I highly recommend this team. They are fun to watch as well!

Sylvan Tree Care did an excellent job removing dead branches from my very large willow tree, and a box elder that was rotted. They cleaned everything up, and the price was reasonable. As a first time homeowner, it was a little scary and daunting worrying about the price and quality, but there was no need for my worrying after all! I have recommended Lincoln and his crew to friends, and I'd definitely use them again!
Suzanne and Louie Murray
We were in dire need of help when a tree fell on our property in a wind storm in October of 2017. EVERYONE was extremely busy...so much that we had to leave messages. HOWEVER, Lincoln was one of only 2 that returned our call for help. He was the only one that actually showed up within one day and took care of the remaining trees that were very weak. Because of the attention to detail and professional approach he took, we had him come back this Spring to remove two more huge Hemlocks that were within 20 feet of our home. Lincoln and his crew were absolutely awesome. They were so considerate of the properties (ours and a neighbors). It doesn't get any better than that. Oh yeah!!! And the price was reasonable.
Betty and Fran Miller
Great job, fast and done as agreed upon. Thanks. Knew what they were doing. Great Dance.

Lincoln and his crew can be depended on to follow through on the job! They not only did an awesome job, they ended up doing more than we originally discussed under the quoted initial estimate.

I first met Lincoln in 2014 just after moving to Vermont. A large tree was over and touching a corner of our roof. He did a marvelous job and his price was more than reasonable. This year we had a tree fall at night. Fortunately it fell away free m our house. It did, however, cause me to assess trees which might prove a danger to our house. Lincoln went over everything with us and helped I decide which trees needed to be removed and which trimmed. The final tally was removal of about 7 trees and a similar number trimmed. These were very tall trees. The price he gave us was quite reasonable. On a Monday morning he and his crew arrived, worked all day, arrived again Tuesday morning and at the end of the he day everything was completed, all trace of trees, leaves and sawdust removed. The yard had been raked. We highly recommend Lincoln Centers of Sylvan Tree Service for any tree work you require. You will never meet a more pleasant and professional gentleman.
Marcia Garlisi, Barre
Sylvan Tree Care is incredible! First of all, Lincoln, is a smart, genuine, gifted and very honest humble man. His crew is equally credible, pleasant and their work was as amazing as Lincoln's. Today my husband and I witnessed their work and were amazed by how quiet they worked with minimal power equipment to take down several trees and clear brush. Even though we knew his company didn't use a lot of equipment, we still couldn't believe it could be done without heavy machinery, but he proved us wrong thankfully. It was so peaceful to be here watching him and his crew meticulously work. Lincoln was very accommodating to some changes we had in our original agreement and handled that more than professionally. He is very easy going and a pleasure to work with. Needless to say, we'll be calling him again for repeated touch ups and work. If you are in need of an excellent tree specialist call him, but just not when we need him and his crew! Thank you Lincoln and crew! Fabulous job!
Clara Bruns
Lincoln and his crew do a professional job for an affordable price! An old tree in back of my house had lost a large branch in a recent storm. The tall broken tree was leaning over a building. The danger was that it could fall onto the building in the next weather event. Lincoln and crew managed the challenge of taking it down in such a way that it felt away from the building. And they even prevented it from falling on my favorite Azalia plant. Thank you so much! Clara
Pete, Barre
We needed to have trees trimmed on our tiny city lot. Lincoln's team was just what we needed. They were on time, worked hard (and surprisingly quietly) and did a great job cleaning up, which was a big help for us. It was fascinating to watch them work in the trees. I would recommend Sylvan Tree Care to anyone.
George and Deb Sabens, Barre Town
Last summer, our 150+ year old Elm tree contracted Dutch Elm Disease. My wife and I built our home 25 years ago, under that tree, and it has been a part of our family since then. This spring, Lincoln, Mike and Joseph carefully and thoughtfully cut down and removed the tree. Not only are they wonderfully skilled, but they showed genuine empathy for us, and total respect for the tree. With comments to us like "we're sorry for your loss", it was clear we made the right choice for the job we needed to get done. And as they left on Friday, they went over to the remaining stump and gently patted it in an incredible show of respect. Thank you guys, we so appreciated the excellent job you did, and it meant a lot to us that you cared so much.

After several other local providers failed to call us back or show up to do work they had previously quoted, I took a shot with Sylvan Tree Care and I am so glad I did!
Lincoln is professional, reliable, and communicative with regards to scheduling and was right on with his estimate. He and Mike did an amazing amount of work on our property in just under a day: removal of a big white pine, wrangling and pruning of several beastly "shrubs," removal of a few other smaller trees and downed branches, and to top it all off: respectful relocation of an occupied squirrels nest that had been hiding in the pine. All this without any heavy machinery. Just lots of old school (impressive) climbing with ropes and a chainsaw. Needless to say, our two-year-old loved watching from the porch, and so did we! We will definitely call Lincoln again for future tree needs.
- Dana Routhier, Northfield
Lincoln worked on individual trees that needed extensive pruning. He also took down over 24 trees to make room for a solar installation. Lincoln did excellent work – the trees that were pruned look beautiful and healthy. The process of taking out so many trees was difficult and he worked with us in a clear and sensitive manner every step of the way. Lincoln worked in a way that minimized the impact on our land. If there were questions, he consulted with us before moving forward. His quoted fee was in line with the final billing. We enjoyed having Lincoln around and will call on him again for future tree needs.
- Fran Weinbaum, East Montpelier
I highly recommend Sylvan Tree Care. Lincoln recently performed a tree removal service at my residence. I was pleased with the entire experience. Lincoln was professional informative and extremely careful and cautious with respect to my property family and even other trees. I engaged in the process and assisted whenever possible. Lincoln was very easy to work with and communicated very well. He was able to complete the tasks requested without compromising safety. If you want the job done right call Sylvan Tree Care your money will be well spent.
- Joe Mulligan, Marshfield
I hired Lincoln Centers at least 3 times to work at my house in Montpelier. The first time was in February 2010, when he did finish work on two bedrooms and built a full bathroom in our basement. In May 2012 he built a gazebo over our back patio. And in August 2012 he trimmed a large maple tree in our back yard. On all of these occasions, I found that his work met and exceeded my expectations. I particularly noticed the amount of time and thought that he put into each job. He asked me questions and made suggestions about things that I had never thought about, that improved upon the final product. I respect Lincoln’s workmanship and attitude and found him to be fair in the fees that he charged. I would hire Lincoln again for carpentry and tree care. Respectfully,
- Danielle Murphy, Montpelier
It has been a wonderful experience working with Lincoln Earle-Centers at our camp and our home.
At camp we took down several 40′ cedars and some birch trees. All trees were dropped exactly where we wanted them to drop. Lincoln took special care not to harm our berry bushes when dropping the trees at camp.
At our home Lincoln was excellent in dropping a 60′ Elm tree with four trunks. Lincoln climbed each one the four trunks and safely and professionally laid each section of the four trunks down between telephone wires and our home. And that was after cutting down a monster 50′ pine tree. Lincoln is very smart and works safely at all times.
I would recommend Lincoln to anyone that had trees that needed to be cut down. Lincoln is a hard worker, and a great person to work with. Lincoln charges a very fair price for the hard work he does. Thanks,
- John P. McHugh, Barre
I wanted to write in response to the request for information about tree care to reiterate the professionalism and excellence of Lincoln Earle-Centers and Sylvan Tree Care. In dealing with post-storm chaos on our modest back hillside, Lincoln went out of his way to create a safe and efficient removal of large, tenuously situated trees. He spent eight hours in a giant maple, living off crackers and water, as he untangled its branches from another tree, removing a certain threat from our home and property while saving the life of another beautiful 100 year old maple. His prices are ridiculously under-representative of his level of knowledge and skill. As a customer and neighbor, I cannot give him enough praise in this arena.
- Drew McNaughton, Marshfield
Lincoln took down a very tall pine tree in our front yard last summer. I was a little nervous because it was right over power lines, but I was pleasantly surprised by how easily he fell the tree and how fast he worked. It was as if he has been doing this his whole life and I would definitely recommend Sylvan Tree Care to everyone!
- Mereya Johnson
Recently had need for tree removal – very large tall tree within a few feet of our water pump so definitely had concerns about having the work done without any problems. Lincoln’s estimate was reasonable and the work was completed when promised in a careful and safe process. Fun to watch too!
Also had some large evergreens trimmed that had gotten away from us – easy to tell that Lincoln and Mike take great care and pride in their work. Our evergreens look great!
- Linda Parks, Waterbury
Lincoln is professional, thoughtful, listens well, works hard, and is very skilled. He is an acrobat with a chain saw. I miss our big tree — it had to come down for safety reasons — but it was really entertaining and intriguing to see how Lincoln and his crew do their work. Hire this guy…he’s good.
- Andy Robinson, Plainfield
Lincoln Earle-Centers was just at my place taking down a huge branch from an even bigger cherry tree. It was a complex operation which he performed flawlessly. He takes great care in his work, care for safety and care for the tree. It is marvelous to watch him in the trees; he really is a master of his craft. And it is all so quiet; he does not use heavy machinery. This is the third or fourth time Lincoln has done work for us and it will not be the last. I very highly recommend Lincoln.

Lincoln Centers of Sylvan tree Service is extraordinary. Gifted arborist AND plant researcher. He studies the way plants behave and communicate (yes: it's now an actual serious scientific field!). I attended a talk he gave: absolutely riveting. Naturally, with that kind of respect for plants, he climbs instead of using big machinery (way easier on your lawn). Great work, highly intelligent, and great to talk to. Enjoy!

We recently hired Lincoln Earle-Centers of Sylvan Tree Care in Marshfield to remove a 50-foot Spruce tree, which had considerably outgrown its space in our front yard, and cut back various other areas of overgrowth throughout our property. The entire process of working with him was seamless beginning with the initial contact, to performing a site visit, to providing a reasonable estimate, through to the successful completion of the work, the cost of which came in below estimate. In addition to his knowledge of silvaculture and skill in carrying out the work, he and his crew were professional and courteous, taking great care around our numerous perennial garden beds and landscaping and thoroughly cleaning up afterwards.

MAKING RECOMMENDATIONI recommend Lincoln from Sylvan Tree Care. He just completed pruning all of my fruit trees and my lilac, plus removal of a neighbor's tree very close to my driveway. Local, family owned a licensed arborist, great job, on time and reasonable.

MAKING RECOMMENDATIONLincoln, the owner of Sylvan, is outstanding. He has done work for us for several years, and we were very pleased each time. And when they have finished taking the tree and branches down, they pick up, and you will never know they were there. Very reasonable. And a nice guy.
